It's not clear to me how you correlate how warm something gets in the
microwave oven with how much loss it'll incur at the end of an HF
antenna. Maybe someone can explain this.

The microwave test was written up in Hints & Kinks, 13th edition, page
6-6, although no scientific explanation was given as to why warmed
plastic would be worse than cool, after 2-3 minutes nuking on "high"
with a cup of water also present. (Author was E.R. Berg, KZ9Y.)

I'd also add a glass of water in the microwave when you do
that...I'm not sure if they are still that way, but it used
to be bad for them to run with no load...IE: food...MK
