Abstract
A series of tuning brackets are mounted on the microwave waveguide manifold at positions between the input waveguide/filter couplings. These brackets constrain the manifold and are constructed with adjustment screws extending through the brackets and mechanically connected to the manifold. The movement of the adjustment screw will tend to deform the manifold dimensions resulting in a fine adjustment of the wavelength (&lgr;) of the multiplexer.
