Very strange. I'm surprised they work two houses away at all. I would cycle the
power on both the unit and the remotes as an easy thing to try, but given the
symptoms, it doesn't sound likely to work.

You could turn off power to everything else in your house at the breaker panel,
that would eliminate most other electronics in the house. Beyond that,
IDK, may require a new opener.

They do sell the RF unit as a stand alone device. I use one for my MP3
player. Connect it to the button terminals
