What are the symptoms that lead you to determine RF Failure? If you wish to contact me off line I can remotely connect using TeamViewer to confirm the issue.
Other than that everything Andy said in the previous response would be a good place to start.

Cheers
John

Hi Kai 

Don't know of a repair service in Australia but you may try taking the top off, vacuuming all the electronics boards and power supply, then reseating all the logic chips and brass spacers.  This fixed our seren rf generator that appeared to be dead.
