Polarization of 1+1 Coupler

The 1+1 mount ships with a vertical polarized coupler. In order to change the polarization
to horizontal the vertical couple must be replaced with a horizontal coupler. (Figure 23) This
coupler has a "twist" transition so it will look slightly different than the coupler that connects to
the Apex. The 1+1 coupler also has 2 slightly offset screw holes to ensure proper installation
orientation.

The vertical and horizontal couplers have differences in the waveguide as shown in
Figure 24.
