If you're receiving Ok but not getting any decent range on transmit, then the output stage of the radio is probably faulty.

A quick check with a UHF SWR/Power meter should be able to tell you if the antenna tuning is Ok and the power output of the radio.

An antenna fault is a common cause of a blown output stage, or leaving the mic keyed down for too long.

Cheers
