I have heard the PTP820/IP20 have a reputation for being complicated to get all the settings right, so you are right to look for someone who has done it before, unfortunately I can’t help with that. There are some generic mistakes we have all been through that would explain such a huge difference between expected and actual signal. One is aligning on a sidelobe, but that should not be as likely with 3 ft dishes in 6 GHz. With something like 6 ft dishes in 11 GHz the beam is very narrow and a tower guy will stubbornly keep trying to get a couple extra dB on a sidelobe instead of swinging the dish through the null to the next peak. Another possibility you have already looked into, and that is a polarization mismatch. I’m going to assume any waveguide seals on the radios or antennas are mylar and not some solid metal thing you are supposed to remove. I am also going to assume you have verified clear line of sight with binoculars, to make sure you aren’t trying to shoot through a hill or building that got built since the latest Google Earth imagery? Now is probably a bad time to find help with this, since people will be in Memphis. Unless you are there also.
