Trouble with tiny hawk 2 video reception

I have a tiny hawk 2 and beta 85 pro V2. The tiny hawk has a more powerful vtx and I'm pretty sure I have it unlocked and full power but my beta 85 has an aio board with a built in 25mw vtx and it gets better picture reception hands down any one have an idea as to why this is and how I might resolve the issue
 
Make sure your antenna is still connected to the AIO may sound silly but if zip tied onto the frame like I did then can shake itself loose from the board may just need some tiny soldering. Also double check it is in fact unlocked you might be running on low power, in general the vid on it has been pretty good in my experience (when antenna attached ;) )
 
How can I be sure it is unlocked I went through the process and pressed the button during startup I even did it again because it didn't seem like it worked I'm using the smart audio to change it on my osd I tried going to vtx in the osd and changing it but it changes back to 25 the next time open the tab but it stays at 200 on savtx and I'm not sure how to make sure it's working
 
After a fresh connection if the power output is saved and working then pretty sure it shouldn't revert in what betaflight shows but tbh not entirely sure it took me a few attempts as well to get it to unlock but then when is changed the power output or channels I was able to use ones that were previously locked (believe above r4 in race band you can't use when locked but would have to double check the documentation on it, probably on emax support pages)
 
All that said even at 25mW you should be able to fly like a baseball field without losing reception or a park so would double check the antenna connection to be sure the GND and coax core are both connected to the AIO PCB
 
I see rich wave but not race band...I think the tutorial I read may have been misleading I think I've pressed the button plugged the battery held the button 10 seconds and then powered off... Supposedly the vtx was supposed to be unlocked at this point I'm not entirely sure I've made the changes directly after power up
