OK. On the one hand:
Purchase new Board: US$25 + shipping
Install New Board: 2 hours work
It all works: All good!
Magnetron is bad: Purchase new Magnetron for US$65 + shipping
Install new Magnetron: 2 hours work.
It wall works: 4 hours + US$90 + shipping.
On the other hand, a brand new 1,000 watt microwave: US$150, complete with warranty.
I admire your wish to reduce landfill, but I have to wonder at the investment in a 10 year old device that is heavily used by your own description.

What is the reliability difference, if any between the classic
transfomer/diode/capacitors and the fancy inverter ovens?
