I have been using the Uniden Home Patrol HP-1 for the past few months now and I am getting ready to get a mobile antenna for it. I am trying to decide if I want to get a mobile antenna that just terminates in an SMA connector or if I want to use one that has a PL259 and then use a SMA Male To SO239 Adapter. My concern is that the bigger PL259/SO239, since it is a bit bigger, might put the SMA connector on the Uniden HP-1 at greater risk of damage, since the PL259 is a bit bigger. In either case I may also use a 90 degree right angle adapter as well. Anyway, does anybody have any thought on this? I guess the other thought is, in an mobile installation, maybe the SMA would look slightly less noticeable, since it is smaller. And I suppose the fewer adapters the better when it comes to RF loss, etc.
