RSP2 owner here. I've used the high Z connector and the Ant A port, and frankly, I don't see a huge difference for HF listening. The issue with the RSP2 is overload. If you have it connected to a good external antenna, the unit will easily overload, especially at night. Easily fixed with the gain adjustment.

For connecting to something like an Antron for upper HF listening, I would recommend getting a short bit of RG58 with an SMA connector on one end for connection to Ant-A and a SO-239 on the other end that you can use to connect your Antron feedline or any other coaxial fed antenna coming into your operating location. That's what I use.

I've had my RSP2 since early 2017. Great SDR.
