Wonder if the nefarious party used magnetrons or masers to carry out the attack. Guessing magnetrons given that this seems very similar to other documented cases [1] before the development of room-temperature solid-state masers.

Reminds me a while back on eBay I saw a magnetron by one of the big military industrial manufacturers with a potential output frequency matching what was used in some recently controversial microwave weapon.

Did it just pop-up or you searching for one.

I was probably searching for magnetrons in general at the time. I browse eBay occasionally to poach lab equipment or retro computing stuff related to whatever I’ve been reading about / working on.
