Abstract
The invention relates to a resonant cavity device such as a magnetron oscillator which is tunable by means of a tuning plunger associated with sealing bellows. A volume defined at least in part by the bellows and producing a range of spurious responses as the tuning plunger is moved is isolated from the resonant cavity or cavities of the device by an isolating choke. The choke may take the form of an annulus having a major radius of 1/4 .lambda. (where .lambda. is the mid-frequency of the tuning range) attached either to the plunger or to the main body of the device and between the bellows and the resonant cavity or cavities.
