	Funding: Office of Naval Research This paper discusses work done on designing a Radio Frequency, thermionic cathode electron gun for high current injection systems. The background and previous work on the subject is overviewed as well as an introduction to other facilities operating thermionic cathodes and their particular configuration. We discuss using a two frequency TM010 electron gun at the Colorado State University accelerator facility and we discuss theory and simulation of exotic mode electron guns. Results are compared using both PARMELA and SPIFFE and for high current electron beams we have simulated CW operation with very-low back-bombardment levels.
