We present a search for microwave emission from air showers induced by ultra-high energy cosmic rays with the MIcrowave Detection of Air Showers (MIDAS) experiment. No events were found, ruling out a wide range of power flux and coherence of the putative emission, including those suggested by recent laboratory measurements.
