My first time opening up one of these power amplifier / filters :)

The waveguides look interesting. Usually they transmit every frequency above some lower threshold, i.e. width and height > lambda/2. I think you are right, that the cavities serve to suppress harmonics and that you need several of them since each cavity does not have a large Q due to the input and output load.
