K3 Ref. in Jack?

[alsopb]

Anybody know what kind of connector is supposed to go in the REF.IN.
hole?  It is apparently too small for a BNC.

I think it was originally intended to be a panel mount SMA. There was some
recent discussion around Elecraft -possibly- developing a form of crude
GPS-lock that may make use of this connector hole. No word on possible
timeline.

It is probably reserved for a SMA connector (God forbid that its a
mini-siemens connector).

The manual clearly states that its to be an SMA.  Or at least it used to...
