abstract = {{Magnetron has been considered as alternate high-efficiency, low-cost RF sources for linacs and storage rings [1] for national labs and industrial applications. After the demonstration of magnetrons power to drive and combine for a radio frequency cavity at 2450 MHz in CW mode, we have used trim coils adding to a water-cooled magnetron and amplitude modulation feedback to further suppress the side-band noise to -46.7 dBc level. We also demonstrated the phase-locking to an industrial grade cooking magnetron transmitter at 915 MHz with a 75 kW CW power delivered to a water load by using a -26.6 dBc injection signal [2]. The sideband noise from the 3-Phase SCRs DC power supply can be reduced to -16.2 dBc level. Further noise reduction and their power combining scheme using magic-tee and cavity type combiners for higher power application (2x75kW) are to be presented. We intent to use one power station to drive the normal conducting and superconducting RF cavities for the inductrial linac. We also going to demonstarte a vertical SRF cavity test with a high input coupling Q using a 2.45GHz magnetron and comparing with a baseline test result using a solid state amplifier.}},
