[MLB-WIRELESS] Hirose MS-147 pigtail

[covert covert]

The connector is a switching jack. The antenna on the PCB is for the
802.11aradio. The elevated sheet is switched with the jack. I have
considered
soldering my own pigtail on. I just need to decide what is the most suitable
plug to put on the other end.
