Amana Microwave
Do Radarange microwaves (by Amana) use radar or microwaves ?

My inlaws have a radarange and insist that it cooks food faster than oridinary microwaves because it doesn’t use microwaves, it uses radar instead. I think it’s just a high powered microwave. Who’s right? Am I or my in laws?

All microwaves transmit around 2.45 gigahertz or else they would not work.

But, microwaves do not all put out the same amount of power.
This model simply puts out more power than the average, therefore it might cook food faster than you are used to. But, it cooks just the same as any top model microwave.

This is also a frequency that RADAR can operate.
The difference in the name is just the purpose of the device.
But if it was RADAR you would be able to see airplanes in the area on the front screen.
So, your in-laws are partially correct.

An interesting note, some one was working to make a better RADAR system and he noticed that it melted the candy bar in his pocket.
This is how the mocrowave overn was discovered.

So, to summarize. All microwaves transmit a microwave signal that is a frequency that can be used for RADAR as well. There is nothing special about this model.
