Worth a try

To increase the range a bit, hold the remote up to the underside of your chin and press the button. This uses your body as a large antenna. I read this on a thread here a while back and was very skeptical, but after trying it I was able to increase the range. Can't be any worse then holding a cell phone to your ear if you are worried about cancer.

This does actually work. I read that you hold it to your head and the fluid in your skull that protects the brain acts as an antenna. We tried it and actually increased range by 9'.
