I didn’t take a close look at that circular waveguide until just now. There is a considerable size mismatch it appears. Those holes should be closer in size than that.

I am not an expert.. but from the pictures it would appear that you are missing a set of mounting plates.. The first set of pictures look like a mounting plate for the Antenna side, where the OMT will attach to.. (they wave guide is circular, to all for both polarities, mounting direction would not be relevant). The 2nd picture shows the OMT flage and the radio.. so some how the radio has to attach to each side of the OMT flage. H & V are marked properly .. if you can read the letter properly (straight) then the slot is in the appropriate direction. The Integra radios apparently attach at 45degree angel .. so where are the plates which should attach to each of the two flanges (H & V) so that you can mount (screw) the radio on them ? :) my two cents worth !

It this just standard stuff i should defaultly understand? This is the first time ive ever seen an OMT in person, but it seems something is off or im making things to complicated, either are equal candidates.

I know the underlying issue probably has to do with why integra WS is not advertised as a 2+0 system. There are no alignment markers or pins between the radio interface and the OMT interface. Im assuming when aligning waveguide slots you have very little marging for error. Attached are the radio and omt interface, and the omt antenna interface, the alignment pins are pointed out with screwdrivers, there are no pins for the radio side and theyre threaded holes that dont look like they would align. Anybody have advice on making sure these line up. Or is there a margin allowed. We had to give up our power margin on this link to get approval because the pcn was contested, i dont have any spare dbs to give
