Original Post:
So, no idea what possessed me NOT to buy the SMA connectors when I bought the station. Guess I thought that buying them from a supply house over here would not be that difficult. So far, I own 8 SMA connectors that won't fit the board... connector housing pins are too large to fit through the PCB holes...
And these were NICE Cinch connectors too....
Do I really have to buy the LPRS from the UK or settle for cheap Chinese UXCELL connectors that don't even have a board standoff ledge on the legs...
I'd really prefer the next batch work and be quality parts... at least a little better anyway.
