Most consumer microwave ovens exceed 800 Watts of power. Exposure to radiation from a microwave oven's tube that has been removed from the protection of the enclosure will result in burns, unconsciousness and death.

DO NOT attempt to convert a microwave oven into a transmitter. Without years of specialized training, access to a well-equipped laboratory with very expensive equipment, and a well-thought-out plan, you will certainly meet with disaster.

Wayneh, please never make such extremely hazardous recommendations again.

Achieving microwave frequencies (GHz range) is not an easy task, even for experienced hobbyists. When you get into the GHz range, device parasitics that were negligible at low frequencies become quite prominent. Even at lower frequencies, a multilayer ceramic SMT/SMD capacitor that measures 47pF in the kHz range might measure 150pF at 500MHz - and that's nowhere near microwave frequencies. When working in the GHz range, you need a network analyzer - at least spectrum analyzer - to see what the circuit is actually doing. A simple oscilloscope is basically worthless at those frequencies.

You have a great deal of research to do.
