Some spec on the 5609 - was [I think] based on the design of the QK59 series of radar jammer magnetrons from WWII - these look essentially identical except for a tuner gear on top. in which case it has a 12 vane type anode Spec Heater 6.3V 3.8A [Tubelore quotes a different H current, but is a typo. Have tested a 5609 personally and can confirm 3.8A is correct] f 2425 - 2475MHz typically 1.5 kV 150ma have seen slightly different figures from other data sources but this is essentially correct o/p 70 - 125W [cant say where the o/p lies, this is the range of figs Ive seen for it. The cathode needs some forced air cooling - hence the heatsink fins in the socket. May have to reduce the heater voltage during opn. dont know..
