I need to use an external directional antenna with my NanoPi2's. The availability of the ufl connector is one of the most useful features of this design for my needs. Do I need to remove the on-board antenna to use the the external antenna effectively?
I plan to house the entire project in a die-cast aluminum box. I anticipate housing another RF front end in the same box, though in a separate shielded enclosure of its own. It doesn't seem ideal to have an unneeded radiating antenna within the enclosure, but I'm unsure how difficult the SMT antenna would be to remove.
