Somewhere around here, I have an article on converting your microwave
oven into a video transmitter.
Takes a few tubes, output is 500-1500W in the 2.4 GHz ham band.
Of course that much power is dangerous for all the obvious reasons,
but answer a short multiple-choice quiz, get your ham licence, and
you're good to go, even with large gain antennas!
