Post the schematic and we'll take a look. As for your first post, it begs for questions more than answers. What's the modulation type and channel bandwidth for the transmitter. CW, SSB, FM (and deviation amount), AM, Spread Spectrum? How are the channels selected; analog continuous, digitally? Much better to post a schematic for review than to ask broad open ended question. Distance is more a matter of output power stage and antenna. It's the modulation type and the channel bandwidth and selection method that drive the design.
