Mike,
Nice image!! Is this from a Microwave Oven? If so it operates ~ 2.4GHz.
There's a fascinating story behind the British invention and development of the magnetron in WWII and shipping it to the USA where the development continued at MIT's Radiation Labs, which was named Radiation Labs to make the Nazi's think that it was centered on nuclear development rather than high frequency radar.

Research is like a treasure hunt, you don't know where to look or what you'll find!
