Hi Robert

This is kinda off-topic for this list, and would be best served by the
Perth wireless mailing list (wireless at innaloo.net, subscribe by emailing
majordomo at innaloo.net with the word subscribe)

Anyway, be aware of a couple of things:

1. 32 slot waveguides have a very thin vertical beamwidth
   16 slot is better for most applications
2. There's a few people in Perth who have made/attempted to make
   waveguides by hand, with no regard for the very small tolerances
   required at microwave frequencies - so beware.

The cheapest machined waveguides in Perth (which have proven themselves to
work really well) are made by a chap named Mike Nye
