JH>Speaking of sparks and smoke - trying to microwave some "baked
potatoes"
JH>this evening.  Saw sparks up on the wall of the thing, heard some

JH>This is an old Sharp microwave- sticker on the back says made in SEP,
JH>1980, so we've certainly gotten our moneysworth out of it.

JH>Anyone know if it might be repairable, or is it on the way to joining

I think you are probably out of luck, UNLESS the failing part happens
to be a still normally available part. I seriously doubt that the maker
would have any repair parts after 23 years!
