Are there any microwave ovens that do not beep, honk, clang, or
otherwise make noises?

My 10-year-old Sharp Carousel microwave has an option to
turn off all the beeps. A specific combination of keypresses
activates that feature. IIRC it's ClockSet; 5; Start. Maybe
you could try to find an online owner's manual for the latest
model and see if it still has that feature. I would recommend
that model, BTW. It has worked perfectly since the day I bought it.
