Im installing a convertacom for my saber in my car and because of where It is being mounted, I will need a 90º SMA connector for the antenna. Anyone know where to get one? Thanks!

yes, but it won't do you any good since the connector is a "mini-uhf" not an sma.

Matt: Phrawg is correct. Get an adapter at Radio Shack which converts the Saber connector to an SO-239 (regular VHF type)and then put a right angle SO-239 connector on it. It will get pretty big, however. Maybe if you look at the Pasternack connector site they will have what you need. They have just about everything else. Check my spelling as it might be nak or nack; I can't remember and it's on my home computer but I'm out of town right now.

Even better yet-
I think I have a couple (90` mini uhf) in the junk box. Send me a private msg w/ your snailmail address and, if I can find one, it's yours gratis.
