True, but it will cook better than the 20 year old Litton too. I doubt it. In fact there will likely be virtually no difference in cooking ability. Microwave oven technology has been refined to the extent that there's very little difference from one unit to another, much like the "AA5" radio of the tube era, the outside may look different, but under the cover they're all remarkably similar. If you have a big old oven in decent cosmetic condition and you still like the thing, seems like it's worth fixing, but then I'd rather fix anything than throw it away. |

I have a 'Little Litton', made in the sixties, and it still works fine, in fact does popcorn (it has no turntable) better than new ones do. It has never had a repair other than replacing the light bulb every few years. However, it will give you a hernia when you pick it up! g The old ones have a metal "fan" blade at the end of the waveguide which spins by the airflow from the magnetron cooling fan. This blade scatters the microwave energy to prevent hot spots. New ovens usually just have a turntable instead. It's debatable which is a better approach, I'm guessing the turntable must be cheaper to make though, either that or people just recognize it as a feature while the fan blade is hidden. |

Well, assuming there is a need for parts, the 20 year old Litton is probably not cooking at all. Anything's better than that. jak |

I would guess the turntable. I had several ovens without them, several with. The ones with always worked better in minimizing hot-spots than the ones without. jak |

Mine was mfg in 1982 and it took two of us to take it out to the curb today. After 35 years, a power surge killed it. Put a new fuse in but that did not help. I think it fried the control board. -- for full context, visit https://www.homeownershub.com/mainte...le-291582-.htm |

Help!Â* Well, 'Thermador themselves' means some poor schnook with a warehouse parts stock list, he WON'T be informed about anything that isn't in stock. That magnetron is $25-ish on eBay. And, many magnetrons would substitute for it, there's some standardization to footprint and electrode configurations. An independent repairman (not factory-authorized) who doesn't have a contractual bond that requires him to use only Thermador parts, might serve your needs better than the schnook with the list. |

My mother in law has an original Amana RadarRange that still works! If it
ever breaks, we will have to find out what museums want it. Jon |
