Can you buy an ESP32-CAM board that is jumpered. Fo external antenna?
I am just getting too old and feeble to successfully unsolder and resolder the jumper(0 ohm resistor) to enable usage of the external antenna connection on the ESP32-CAM board. Is there any source to buy these boards already configured to use the external antenna connection? I have antennas and have a few destroyed boards while trying to do the conversion. Why couldn't they just have put a switch (or at least the pads for a switch) on this board. It would be SOOo much more useful! Any source info would be appreciated.

Contact the LILYGO team directly, they help me for 3 boards normally defaulted to internal antenna, they shipped to me the three boards set to external antenna. They are great to work with.

Thanks for your response, I just sent an email to sales@lillygo.cc to ask about availability and price.

Well, Lilygo finally responded to my question about getting some ESP32-CAM boards preconfigured for an external antenna. Their response was to ask which board I was asking about. They apparently don't make an ESP32-CAM. I looked through their product descriptions on their website and didn't see anything looking like the ESP32-CAM. So, I am back to asking the forum if anyone knows where to buy ESP32-CAM modules factory wired for external antenna instead of the on-board antenna.

There are ebay sellers who supply them with an external antenna, maybe message one to ask if it is ready configured?
