1. A millimeter-wave radio system, comprising:

  • an antenna body made from a single piece of material, the antenna body comprising a reflector region and a waveguide region; and

    a radio receiver mounted on a substrate, wherein the substrate is mechanically fixed to the waveguide region such that the substrate is mechanically held by the waveguide region;

    wherein the system is operative to;

    (i) reflect millimeter-waves from the reflector region toward an aperture of the waveguide region, then (ii) guide the millimeter-waves through the waveguide region, and then (iii) feed the radio receiver with the millimeter-waves.
