    Really ! I would think you would want to break out the EMI shielding,
since the waveguides used at both X and K band are WELL beyond cutoff of
the S-band ( 2,300 mc/s ) of a microwave oven.

    Our microwave oven won't light off an Escort, but there are radar detectors
whose local oscillators can be picked up a mile or so away ? Is there any
health hazard in operating these incredible transmitters ? ( Escort didn't
have STO/P (tm)).

    And is there a problem with the old X-band radar, which on full speed-trap
incinerate mode can be picked up 4 miles away, being co-located with the
law enforcement officer ?
