This microwave stopped heating. I tested the elctrical circuits and
discovered a bad diode that was connected to the capacitor. ...The diode
has the following info on it HVR-1X , SK 3018. Does anyone know where I
might be able to purchase this diode ?

The HVR-1X is a common diode for microwave ovens. It can be replace with
an NTE517:
