Thanks for supplying that. There is a different ESP type in this config to the reference one on the web site, so I'll stick with the one you have supplied. If I just use your config, adjusting as needed for my wireless, then it works. That is great news. As soon as I add in the buzzer, lights etc from that section of the web site config, it stops working. I'll spend some time gradually adding things in until I see which ones cause the problem and report back.

Again thanks for this one and I applied this config, but without pressing any buttons on my RF remote, data is displayed continuously, so I modified the dump all in your config to just dump rc_switch and that allowed me to just see button presses. It's like there is RF noise being registered by the device all the time. Is there a way to stop this from happening? As with the IR, I'll gradually put in the other config for the other devices. Many thanks for the assist.

because there are many wireless signal in air, suggest use RC-switch. ESPHome official website also showed about this question:
Note:
If the log output is flooded with “Received Raw” messages, you can also disable raw remote code reporting and rely on rc_switch to decode the values.

I found that ESPHOME comment previously which is why I changed the dump all. But I only have 2 RF transmitters and neither were in use during my test. My house is way out in the country, so there will not be any other RF devices interfering from neighbours. Is there a way to reduce the sensitivity of the RF receiver? An answer of 'No' is quite ok and just saves me continuing to look.
RE: KC868-UAIR ESPHOME Config for IR and RF - admin - 05-13-2022
Different RF receiving modules have different sensitivity and noise. Or other wireless receiving modules can be replaced. If you just use the current module, you can't change it.
RE: KC868-UAIR ESPHOME Config for IR and RF - dmshimself - 05-13-2022
OK! Many thanks

OK I've now spent some time putting all the devices into the config and the IR and RF receivers stop working as soon as I add one of the lights. So my config is shown below. If I uncomment the one light shown in this, no IR or RF codes are display and this was my original problem. So I think with your help this issue has been narrowed down to some conflict with the LED config and the IR/RF receivers. Any thoughts on the next steps appreciated!

do you means LED is:
