Refer post #3 above for LO level and  stage gain determination, however one of the MMICs in each path was replaced by a capacitor on that board layout so use 0dB gain/loss for that stage. 

There are better products now-adays (and available) than the SNA586 and because they are all based on 50 ohm in/out, changing to a more modern MMIC in the same package style is as simple as changing the series bias resistor to the output pin of the MMIC. 

Have fun. HNY

Thanks Doug and all understood.
