Could this be power problem?

Yes, that's the issue I raised in post #7

Its possible that the FT232 cannot supply enough power for the transmitter.

photo of the test I reported in post 6 showing the Pro Mini, RFM95 LoRa module and external 3.3V power supply (orange and green wires)

Hand drawn. If we can't see both ends of a wire we can't tell if the circuit is complete. Also if you can see what pins each wire is on as in the following then you have some sort of special vision cuz I can't. Here is one, there are others. I am done, good luck.

They're not the sharpest of pictures, so all I can say is that a lot of those solder joints might need to be redone. It's been so long since I asked that it's apparently not urgent so I won't pursue it further. Good luck!
