Improving the SMA-F connector caps
It’s interesting how sometimes small side effects can add up over time to be a real problem. Recently I’ve had a couple of concerning support requests which led me to start taking some measurements, and I discovered something concerning: our SMA-F connector covers have been gradually changing over time, slowly enough that I had not noticed until it started being an issue for a few customers.

Using 3d printing to improve the Super-Elastic Signal Stick
One challenge with a project like these antennas is that we are constantly looking for ways to improve on our previous designs. The reason this is a challenge is that often when we develop an improvement which has significant advantages it also changes the appearance of the antenna, which both creates the possibility that people will not like the change and creates a transitory period where people expect the product to remain constant but we have some stock of the old and some of the new.
That said, we’ve been experimenting with a 3d printer and have started producing covers for the antenna and anti-eye-pokers (that’s a highly technical term) for the tips. Here are some pictures of what the new antennas look like:

SMA male antennas are back in stock
Thanks in part to several hams in Utah and Salt Lake counties who assisted, we now have SMA male antennas back in stock. I have black and yellow in my hand right now, but red and blue antennas will be done in about four hours; not in time to ship today (Jan 1), but does mail run today anyway? =] They’ll be ready to ship tomorrow, and our stock will build up as we finish applying the final two steps of antenna construction.
