Now I know this is really a computer forum but I have Googled the life out of my machine to find out how the antennas work in a flatbed microwave oven.
I have a fair idea of how a conventional microwave works and I cannot find out how flatbed microwave ovens work? Do they have a spinning antenna beneath the flatbed deck or what?
Any help really be appreciated.

I wish I could help but this is the first time I ever heard of a flatbed microwave.

Thanks, Winsuser that is just what I wanted and describes what is going on inside the oven - now I just have to find a YouTube showing the various moving parts.
I have one of these flatbed microwaves and it beats the heck out of the alternative rotating carousel type the cooking is more even and there is way less mess. The only drawback is that they are a little more expensive (not much) than the conventional ones. So next time you are up for one you really should try one;-)

Don’t know how they work but I know my flatbed one works better than any of the spinning ones that I have bought before

Yes mate but I have a theory that perhaps there is a spinning antenna beneath the deck of the microwave that shoots up the waves to bounce around inside the cavity of the device - but I could be wrong and as I cannot find a good YouTube or another site to verify this.
