It initially failed to catch on because it was large, expensive, and only available in built-in/wall-mounted. Also, many didn't understand (or trust) microwave technology, and their food being zapped by invisible rays. The 1955 Tappan model (intended for home use, and with technology licensed from Raytheon) used 220 volts, cost $1,295 (over $12,500 in today's dollars), and only a few homes had one. Raytheon coined the term "Radarange" in 1946. It was the first commercially available microwave. It was almost 6 ft tall, weighed 750 lbs, and cost about $5,000 (over $76,500 in today's dollars). Raytheon acquired the Amana Corporation in 1965, and introduced the first countertop microwave oven in 1967, which they named the Radarange. It wasn't cheap, either - at $495 (almost $4200 in today's money). So, two decades after its invention, the microwave oven finally caught on in American homes in the form of Amana's compact unit. Now, over 90% of US homes have a microwave oven. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1698801880.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1698801880.jpg |

I'm pretty sure it was one of these, Kenmore Microwave Convection oven. https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4HBFapyHP...arly+1980s.JPG |
We had a Montgomery Ward microwave/convection oven. It was a beast. Our house was burglarized while we were out of town and it was stolen along with my stereo components. We lived in a patio home with a brick privacy wall in front. The idiots did not buzz the latch on the wrought iron gate (the button right inside the door they broke in) to let themselves out and hoisted everything over the wall smashing all the shrubs. A speaker grill was left in the foliage along with a few other things.

This engine powered the M4A4 Sherman. All in, it had 30 cylinders, 30 spark plugs, displaced 20.5 litres (1,253 cu in) and weighed over 2.5 tons. Total output was 450 hp and 1,440 Nm (1,000 lb ft) of torque. Despite its complexity, the A57 was actually a very reliable engine. However, due to its large size, the M4A4 Sherman had a slightly longer hull to accommodate it. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1698806663.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1698806663.jpg |

Some pics are already named .png or .jpg. I think I have 'hide file properties' on. Windows could be easier to use. I just use batch conversion with irfanview. Does all of em at one. Batch Conversion. Go to source folder. Select file type. Add all. On left click Use This Folder. Start Batch Conversion. The menu GUI is a little quirky but it works. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1698859072.jpg |
