Trying to figure out what the heck kind of connector is on this Meshtastic when I find this gem:
"Wi-Fi equipment manufacturers have widely used RP-SMA connectors to comply with specific national regulations, such as those from the FCC, which are designed to prevent consumers from connecting antennas that provide additional gain and therefore breach Part 15 compliance. However, by 2000, the FCC regarded the connectors as readily available, though delaying its ruling indefinitely. As of 2018, leading manufacturers such as Netgear and Linksys are still using RP-SMA connectors on their Wi-Fi equipment."
The radio industry definitely doesn't have enough antenna connector types. We should try to double it to say, 300 million 🤡
