Bdale sells the appropriate SMA connector at
https://shop.gag.com/parts/sma-connector-pcb-edge.html and that page
also has part numbers for other vendors.

I think I found the solution, so somebody can correct me if I'm mistaken.
It looks like I can use an edge-launch SMA connector which would be solder
such that the 4 prongs are anchored/solder to those 4 pads and the
connector pole
is soldered into the exact same place as the previous whip antenna. Then
I can connect
an external antenna to the SMA connector.

I'm sure this isn't a new issue, but my standard wire antenna
broke off from my Telemetum. I was wondering, the two pads opposite
of the wire antenna appear to be where one could solder an antenna
connector. So I was wondering:
a) Can you solder a connector to either side of the board, since
there are pads on both sides?
b) What type of connector/antenna is recommended?
Thanks,
