I wasn't trying to be rude or disingenuous I was using a little
psychology. I don't know Mr. Luca or his technical abilities and he
doesn't seem to understand the process of being as precise as possible
when seeking some tech information. I did research his Blue Sky weather
apparatus but I couldn't find enough info on it in English to be of help.
Even if I were able to find english tech literature I don't think Mr.
Luca has the skill set to sort out the problem with the proper
references. I mentioned how I would go about evaluation and possibly
repair to demonstrate the procedure and let him make up his mind if he was
up to the task.

No problem. The fact is that I'm not an electronic guru, sure. Note
that I'm not Italian, and that I consequently can't write topics in
Italian.

I wouldn't consider myself a guru on anything but older( vintage) tube
style guitar amps. It's hard to keep abreast of the wildly evolving
technology unless you deal with it as employment and are sent to school
on the stuff as a part of your job continuing education. That's why I'm
stuck in the 60s,70s, and 80s. I'm now a hobby repair making a few spare
bucks spending money but at times quite in demand for all sorts of
vintage gizmos and amps. I like dealing with point to point wiring,
standard PC board construction and don't like surface mount parts.
Some say it's never too late to learn but the zeal of new technology
service has long faded for me.

Sorry Luca, your name & surname looks like just as mine, Italian.
Go ahead, get passionated in electronics and for shure you'll became as
expert as Meat Plow....
Can't help you with your gizmo, but it looks like it just doesn't transmit.
You will need some skill to investigate the power out RF stage as well as
the typical other basic circuits involved in p.s.
Good luck!

Thanks both. Actually, I _can_ verify if measures are correct at the
transmitter, but how can I know e.g. which voltages I should get
between a point A and a point B, both points being well defined? There
is absolutely no manual or tech. specs. for the transmitter.

@Vale: You couldn't guess that I'm not really Italian. That is, my
name & surnames are Italian, but I'm not. But there is absolutely no
problem to it. :)
