I'm OK with this one, a 1971 Monkey Wards. It is just a magnetron and
a spring wound timer. Not much to break and it gets the job done.

Just stand at least 30 feet away from it when it's running. :-)

I bet the shielding on the original ovens is better than today.
They were really afraid of microwaves in the late 60s and the regs
were pretty tight.

We have an older microwave oven on the boat, probably 20 years old or
more. It knocks out the WiFi network every time it's on. Our oven at
home is newer and does not usually affect the WiFi at all.

I have never had that but you have me curious. I will give it a shot
later this evening.
Have you looked at the door seals? You still seem to be saying your
oven is 27 years newer than mine, when they had become $99
disposables. I think I paid close to $300 for mine in Nixon dollars

It was on the boat when we bought it 13 years ago and it was not new
then, probably at least 5 to 10 years old already. I'd replace it but
it's a custom fit built-in.

Well shoot, you've got all us researchers here, what are the needed dimensions?
