Like most circuits I'd assume you'd need two in series to double the 
voltage, but as they operate in the mircowave region the antenna placement 
would be critical for proper phasing.  Now would you use two in series on 
transmit and then two in parallel for receive, or would they have to 
increase the 60 cycle modulation to get more power?
