Hi Jonathan,
At startup, the init_cal will always be conducted at 2.5GHz requiring an
external LO at 5 GHz.  After the init cal, then you can re-tune your
external LO to twice the desired operating frequency.  It wasn't clear to
me from your comment if your external LO is initially configured to 5 GHz
or to 2 GHz.  If the latter, try with 5 GHz and if startup occurs
correctly, retune it to 2 GHz after that point.
