[HamWAN PSDR] Ordering from Streakwave

[j sweeney]

I'm not clear what the issue is here.  No jumpers or other additional cables are necessary.The Ubiquity antennas (both the regular and LW dishes) connect directly to Mikrotik radios.  The antenna is a RP-SMA M, the 912 is RP-SMA F.  I've got exactly this setup on a bench right now that I'm playing with for some other projects.  The only other change here is that the 912 5HP is in a RF Elements StationBox.  But that's just an enclosure...

Pics or it didn't happen:

Due to the tariffs we are no longer bringing in international product from Ubiquiti or Mikrotik into our stock (we do have some stock remaining on certain products). The reasoning is that we are unable to compete with the European markets due to being charged and additional 25%. When we were selling international product, only a very small percentage was staying in the states for instances like this but most of the time we were exporting overseas. From a business standpoint it doesn’t make sense to dedicate shelf space in our facilities on product that won’t move due to high pricing....

That is not awful I don’t suppose but they do not carry the cables to connect the radio to the antenna.   The referred me to a third party.  The cable requires a RP SMA F at the radio end and a RP SMA Male at the antenna end should anyone want to build one for the MikroTik radio to the Ubiquiti 30 dbi antenna.
