Make sure you get LMR-400 antenna cable to maximize your gain(dbi) here is the link of the one I bought.

MPD Digital Times Microwave LMR400 Coaxial Cable - N Male to RPSMA Male connectors - lmr-400 RF for Hotspot, Wi-Fi, Radio transmitters, Antennas (25ft) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083JHJKW8/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_B5XFWXWVWXMJ44VZ0A6M?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

This is one of the best madeinusa lmr-400 cables. The little end is RPSMA Male, that goes to your hotspot. The other end is N Type Male. But you need to check the antenna you buy and also the lightning arrestor, to see if you need N Type Male or Female.

Could I ask for your help one more time?

This is the wire I ordered, but now I'm not so sure that it's going to work after looking st the reviews and questions asked.

Do you think it will work or do I actually need a little digital to analog converter box?

Thanks a ton, I enjoyed learning from your posts last night.

I ordered from here. Only 20 feet available at the moment though.

Something that I'm not sure anyone has tested yet is spdif over coax, instead of optical. Like this cable, https://www.amazon.com/Micca-Premium-SPDIF-Digital-Coaxial/dp/B00V436UQU

The a80j setup guide includes a pin out for the video/l/r input, but only a low res photo for the s-center.

Video input is 4 connections. L/Video/Ground/R.

There are tons of options on Amazon however I choose this set up because I needed a longer cable. So far I’m happy with what I got / paid

Ok well I would suggest the cell phone suction cup outside the window route, and order a 3ft lmr400 MPD Digital Genuine Times Microwave LMR-400 LM400 RF Coaxial Cable with N Male and RP-SMA Male Connectors for Hotspot, WiFi, Radio Transmitters, Antenna, 3 Feet https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083JJCQQJ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_CA1G1ME2MK984SCZP29K?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 Then use double sided gorilla 14lbs tape affix to wall or window sill. I am currently using this method on 3 of my miners

I found this antenna to be quite good! I went from 8 dbi to a 6. And drastically improved witnesses up by 60%

Hello! i'm currently trying to connect my PC audio to my Enog2 pro. However my PC does not have either TOSLINK optical or Coax S/PDIF ports. It only has 3.5 ports for audio. I was looking and found this which may solve my problem. Would this work or is there another way to go about this.

The Audio is going from my PC to my Enog2 pro to my JDSLABS ATOM using RCA to my headphones using a 3.5mm to 1/4 converter.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

This is definitely a good answer.

An AWESOME gift for your Dad would honestly be: your time and attention. Ask him if there are any projects you can help him with, like putting up an antenna or running some coax. Building things with your kid (when they are interested) is often a very happy memory for many Dads.

If you get him a NanoVNA get him a set like this to go with it.

Sorry for all the posts. I don't know if you'll get separate channels with a basic 3.5mm to RCA connector.

If you get a 3.5mm to digital coax: https://www.amazon.com/Micca-Premium-SPDIF-Digital-Coaxial/dp/B00V436UQU

And run that to a DAC: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KNNSKV0

You should keep your L/R channels for RCA. Monoprice might have better pricing on the cable; a lot of the ones on Amazon were for optical-to-coax.

What kind of TV and amp are you using? I wouldn't spend too much trying to get an analog setup working.

Here's a link to a set of antenna connectors

2PCS RF coaxial coax cable assembly SMA female to MCX male right angle 6''

https://www.amazon.com/DHT-Electronics-coaxial-assembly-female/dp/B00CP17WMG/

Yeah, i used a velcro strap to keep everything together. I put the antennae down along the side tucked inside the velcro strap by using some 90degree sma pigtails to go between the antenna and the jack. I can send you a close-up later today.

Here's the pigtail I used (two of them). DHT Electronics RF coaxial coax assembly SMA female to SMA male right angle 6'' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00COJWKGC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_15YAAbKE7FXCE

Wow, already more interest than I expected! Important note: these are SMA male antennas, they require an MCX>SMA adapter. I suggest these from Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CP17WMG?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00

That's what I was thinking too, but I'm not actually sure it would fit. The antenna will probably be about 1cm thick, so the MCX adapter would have to be at least .5cm longer to make sure the antenna clears the side of the case.

Instead, I was thinking SMA might work better, because we could still use a right angle MCX > SMA adapter like this again assuming it'd clear thickness wise. But we would also have the option of not having to mount the SDRs such that their MCX connector is externally exposed, and use something like this internally and through-mount the female SMA connector on the top plate, that way you have the option of removing the antennas too.

What do you think?

Thanks for the list!

I've been using the FiiO E10k (my first DAC/headphone amp) since last fall and was interested to hear your review. I've been very satisfied with mine (the bass boost is great with my SoundMagic HP150s, which are similarly flat/neutral sounding), but am always curious about upgrades. I do have a question for you though: Since I run my Audioengine A2 speakers out the back of my E10k through the 3.5mm line out, would I notice a difference if I switched to the SPDIF out (using a cable like this)? I guess the general question is, is there a noticeable difference between 3.5mm->3.5mm cable versus a SPDIF Coaxial ->3.5mm cable when going from DAC to speakers?

Mine is about 6 inches. I have my vtx sitting right behind my camera. If your mounting it in the back you may want shorter. THis is what i have http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00COJWKGC?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00

heres a pic but you can barely see it. It runs over the FC http://imgur.com/3kkzgnG
