two really strange questions

[Glen Zook]

When I hear the word "microwave" I think in terms of
the point-to-point, 2 GHz and above, radio
communications systems and not the "microwave oven"!
A 1100 watt output microwave communications system
would be "ONE" powerful system.  On the other hand, a
1100 watt microwave oven is not that uncommon,
especially in the older home models.  There are
commercial microwave ovens that are much more
powerful.

Sorry for the confusion!  I've been in the
communications business too long!

no, just a common sears type microwave that is rated
at "1100 watts"

From: Glen Zook <gzook at yahoo.com>

Normally all commercial equipment is rated in power
output. Also, that is one "H" of a microwave unless
you are alking about erp (effective radiated power).

on a 1100 watt microwave, does that mean 1100 watts
input or 1100 watts output?
