There has been some discussion about destroying radar guns, and I don't
know if I saw the complete thread, but I thought I'd throw in my .02
worth.

I do know of someone who did build a radar killer using a surplus
magnetron.  He was able to test it because he also worked at a facility
that repaired the guns.  As someone posted earlier, it would take out
the diodes on the front end, but nothing more.  After testing it, I
believe it was then dismantled for obvious reasons.  Don't ask me for
any more info on this, because a) I don't know any more and b) I am not
at liberty to discuss any other details.
