Re: [AFMUG] RPSMA or SMA for 450i AP?

2021-03-24 Thread Mathew Howard 
Yeah, I know, but my point was that in this case, you're going to have to
turn a TPA horn into a horn with RPSMA connectors to use it, so you aren't
introducing loss and hassle by going with the N connector horn - it's
arguably less hassle, since there aren't as many parts to deal with. There
are still some other advantages to going with the TPA horn, as has been
pointed out.

If we were talking about ePMP (or anything else that TP adapters are
available for), then I agree, there's no question that TPA is a much better
way to go.

I'd go that route, though. Not because I advocated for a few years for it with 
Tasos and JT, but because you'd have the TPA, you can easily change radios in 
the future.

I'm pretty sure they don't make twist port adapter for the 450i. Using a TP to

I don't see any problem with doing what you were planning on.

The other option I was talking about would be to go with the RF Elements
Carrier Class horns (which are basically the same thing, they just have N
connectors instead of the twist port). But it looks like using the TP horn
with the SMA adapter (which essentially just gives you a horn withRP-SMA
ports) is $40-50 a piece cheaper, so I'd probably just go with that. The
only downside I see is that it's an extra part to deal with, but it
probably isn't really any different as far as loss goes.
