That would make me a little nervous Wayne. The door gaskets and

block any microwave radiation from the oven. If there's enough
leakage to knock out your wi-fi signal I think I'd be thinking of
replacing the microwave.


=========

I hear you and I have thought about it. The problem is that the
microwave resides in a custom built teak enclosure that came with the
boat. A new unit would have to be exactly the same size to fit. We
don't use it a huge amount, it contues to work well for its intended
purpose, and I doubt that there is any real safety issue.
