RSB-0072 Magnetron test

[jennyleigh]

Johnny,
Is there a procedure for testing the magnetron?
Targets getting weaker over time but would like to confirm magnetron before ordering a new one.
I have checked heater voltage.
Thanks!

A dealer will normally check the mag current as an indicator. Most send the RTR in for testing rather than risk buying parts which are costly and not returnable. When the boat is down for other service, the RTR could be in and out of the service center quickly.
