The history suggests, anything I might make, that actually makes money, they
eventually will incorporate in some fashion.

Maybe UBNT would like adapters designed for an array of licensed dishes? This
would help get the radios out to the masses faster.

Sure can. I would recommend SMA connectors though I think.
What does the radio have on it?

So I assume there is no adapter available based on the crickets i've heard
from a few places.
Paging Chuck McCown- If we wanted 20 or 30 of these could you make up a
batch? I assume there would be others who would end up wanting them too.

If the dish's feed waveguide is cylindrical, yes you can use dual polarity
with it. The question is having the right adapter, which it sounds like Chuck
will build.

UBNT is about to release their 11 Ghz radios to the market. I imagine
some operators like us may want to upgrade existing 11 GHz links to the UBNT
radio to gain more capacity.
Our licensed links are Dragonwave Horizon Compact and we use the Andrew
VHLP2-11-DW1 in the majority of links. Is there an adapter that will convert
these dishes to N connections? These dishes also allow us to rotate the radio
to take advantage of Horizontal or Vertical polarities as our license dictates.
Can they be run in dual polarity? Ideally, the adapter would have 2 N
connections, one for H + V. Here is a photo of the Dragonwave interface.
