Hi,
Our over-the-cooking-range microwave oven has not been functioning for some
time now, and we have been using a table-top  microwave oven instead.
Recently, I wanted to replace the microwave, but my wife said she preferred
the existing arrangement.  Her contention is that she often uses microwave
and cooking range simultaneously, and this makes her stand in close
proximity to the microwave.  She has concerns about RF leakage from the
microwave, and feels it can be harmful.

I have not come across any information on the safety of the domestic
microwave ovens.  Is there anyone who has actually measured the RF leakage
from the microwave, or can lead me to the other research information on the
subject.

All replies will be greatly appreciated.

Regards, Ravinder
