I am going to try changing one of our sectors from the SR5 card to the WLM card and see what that does. However, if I change from 5240mhz to 5800mhz (with no other changes), the signal levels are 2-5db (varying between customers) and the signals also match on each side of each link.
I'll let you know what we find out tomorrow.
