Subaru: Keyless Remote problem '02 VDC

The last week or so, a problem started in my keyless remote for my '02 VDC
wagon. My wife's remote works perfectly but mine sometimes works and
sometimes I have to press the button anywhere from 4 to 20 times! If I remove
the battery, when I put it in, I have to press the button exactly 6 times
(which is what is to be expected) and the remote works for a day or so. I
tried a new battery and the same thing happens.

Is it the remote? or maybe re-registering the remotes might help? Anyone
experienced this problem?

FWIW I have the same problem with my '97 Outback. I bought new batteries,
with no improvement. I bought a new transmitter (twice) still no
improvement.

I have just begun locking the car with the switch, that way if the keyless
doesn't work I at least don't have to turn off the alarm manually when it
starts blaring.
