General question. Should the cabinet around the magnetron tube get hot? I think the magnetron tube may be going out on this model. The cabinet should not be getting this hot, at times you cant keep your hand on it. Just curious, one aspect of microwave technology that I havent explored,,,,heating cabinets.

The only way the cabinet should get hot is when something is cooking for long periods of time.

Unless this is a micro-convection oven with a heating element in it.

Can you please supply your model number?
