I believe the wave gun is listed as a spinal mount weapon.  In FT/MT,
the
spinal mounts seem to be treated as a single weapon with the ship hull
built
around it without options for multiple mounts per ship.  I would
understand
the rules from MT as limiting the wave gun to one install per ship.

Of course, you could make your own option for this weapon like the
parallel
spinal mounts found in Traveller.  The parallel mount gave the architect
the
option to install two spinal mount weapons of the same type and
configuration in either a fore or aft firing position.	This would be
similar to the Andromeda class ships.  For more info on parallel mounts
check out the Fire, Fusion, and Steel supplement.
