White Lord Posted August 29, 2017 Posted August 29, 2017 (edited) I brought my Tetra to Europe and I lost 1 antenna. Do you guys have a replacement set I can buy or a link to the correct SMA antenna? I am having a hard time finding them on the interwebz. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers! Edited August 29, 2017 by White Lord Quote

White Lord Posted August 30, 2017 Author Posted August 30, 2017 Thanks. I just remember Darren talking about how good the Antennas were especially with SMA instead of RP-SMA. I was hoping for a direct link to the exact ones my Tetra came with. But I will buy that one and see. I need my baby back up and running. Thanks for you help :) Quote
barry99705 Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 There's no difference in signal between sma and rp-sma. The reason we have both is way back when, commercial antennas had non-reverse connectors, and they didn't want Joe Anybody hooking up a 10 watt amp, or a 50db antenna to his home router. So they made the consumer versions with non-compatible connectors. Now we can get parts from flea-bay so it's all moot, but we're stuck with both connectors. 1 Quote
White Lord Posted September 5, 2017 Author Posted September 5, 2017 Ahh. Makes sense. Thanks for the response Barry. I appreciate the explanation. I bought a flea bay antenna. Got a email from the HakShop and they are sending me an replacement antenna. I absolutely love this community and all the support and feedback I have received. Thanks Everyone. Quote
