 I know what a maser is, but no one seems to really use them any more. I
_don't_ know much ABOUT them. Lasers seem much more straighforward, and
maybe a little less tricky than masers. What I really want to do is to make
a mountain out of some molehills. I want to gang several magnetrons 
together and make a device that would shoot a very directional beam of
microwaves. (The magnetrons I have are all rated 2.5 GHz, I think.)
I just want something to experiment with. But I would like some input for
maybe a good driver circuit for several magnetrons. (Wonder how many can be
driven by the 15kV transformer from a microwave?) It's just something I
want to mess around with. I thought I'd ask for some input. I guess a
maser isn't what I really want to make, just something to use a bunch of
magnetrons in. (No. I don't want to make a RADAR system...)
