Calibrating a 110 GHz extender on WaveLink

Above 110 GHz, calibration stops being a 'set it and forget it' step. The waveguide flange torque matters. The cable orientation matters. The room temperature matters.

Standard practice on a WaveLink: LRRM at room temperature for the lower band, TRL at the band edge for the extender, and a recheck on every thermal cycle. The math is the math; the discipline is what carries the measurement.
