You're probably right, hadn't thought of that! Thank you. The distance was just meters, they had just undocked.

I can confirm this problem. I've been having it since 0.23 (I think) and thought I was the only one so there should be something wrong with my installation. I've got two ships with communotron 32's near each other in Moho orbit and only the one with dishes pointed at Kerbin is connected. From other situations I've been experiencing it feels like relaying has some problems outside of Kerbin's SOI even with ships pointing dishes at each other.
