contents The temporal resolution of ultrafast electron diffraction (UED) at weakly relativistic beam energies ($\lesssim$ 100 keV) suffers from space-charge induced electron pulse broadening. We describe the implementation of a radio frequency (RF) cavity operating in the continuous wave regime to compress high repetition rate electron bunches from a 40.4 kV DC photoinjector for ultrafast electron diffraction applications. Active stabilization of the RF amplitude and phase through a feedback loop based on the demodulated in-phase and quadrature components of the RF signal is demonstrated. This scheme yields 144$\pm$19 fs RMS temporal resolution in pump-probe studies.
