    Is it ok if the U.FL cable connector touches the case of the reset switch?

      I've put my LoRa in the standard Pycom case, but notice that the U.FL connector is very close to the metal case of the neighbouring reset switch. Hopefully both surfaces are connected to ground, so it won't matter if they do touch - are they? If it's important to keep them separated I'll have to put a bit of insulation tape in the gap. Unfortunately I can't just rotate the cable away - the connector isn't tight enough and it just flips back. I've attached a photo.

      Thanks,
      Greg.

        (typo - I meant to say "LoPy" instead of "LoRa")
