The objective of this program is to develop a microwave oscillator capable of producing 200 kW of CW power at 60 GHz. Additional calculations for stepped cavity designs are reported. The work on collector fatigue improvement has continued. Testing of X-6 results in operation at CW output power in the range of 200 to 206 kW for a time period of one hour. This satisfies one of the program's major milestones and represents a new world record for CW power at frequencies above 28 GHz.
