Which wires would you need to go from the controllers pcb straight to the antenna? U.FL to RP-SMA female or male with 90 degree ends for the dbs antenna.

Tony I don't have a clue . Sure you could have some made but I don't know who from . Never looked .
Here's my DBS setup:
Shown with bracket disconnected from controller for better viewing:
Currently using antenna lock plugs from dynamic 3d solutions, but they're not very good. They don't latch because of the poor 3d printing quality. I may put epoxy if they continue to pop-off.
Controller port has RP-SMA female. Cable to controller port has RP-SMA male.
Other end of cable has SMA male which connects to SMA female on DBS antenna.
I use right-angle (90 deg) RP-SMA male to RP-SMA female adapter to give me better clearance coming out of controller port. If not, the cable will hit the DMS antenna. You could flip the antenna upside down, but that would make the antenna rest on the floor instead of the controller leg when placing controller down.
Nicely packed into my GPC Limited Edition backpack.
