On the circuit Cellar site I noticed the oven has IR heaters, now are 
these the quartz tube heaters that glow orange and put a fair amount of 
heater out ?

I have a 1200W 3 bar room heater that I am about to through out and I 
could pull the heaters and put them in a microwave cavity so I can 
routate the PCBS to avoid hot areas ;) also has nice control push button 
panel to interface to an AVR ;)

I am thinking I might have to find a convection microwave that is dead, 
and have a play :)

Kat.

(can you tell my workshop is just about up and running ? I am in idea 
mode :)
