I recently inherited a nifty little 2 inch Elgin A-11 1776 type 8 day aircraft clock. Took it apart to fix the second hand. Then I thought, oops. Was that...
As a collector of radium radio-luminous items, I don't think that this clock face would have Ra-226 with low reading such as 2 x background. May have...

I think I might just do this. When I purchase one of your preamps and a NaITl probe from you. Thank you:) Sent from my iPod On 2008. 11. 04, at ¿ÀÀü 1:27,...
Folks.... I am looking for pdf files of the owners/service manual CD V-7006b and the CD V-717. I am guessing it is legal to post them? Perhaps the manual is...
I've got a few old alarm clocks that have radium dials the luminesent pain that was mixed in with the radium, no longer glows, some ar a bit brown, but that is...

All the 6a's are operating and in pretty good condition. I have a 6b that needs battery terminals, and a plastic CDV-700 that needs lots of TLC. If nobody in...
Now this is very interesting. I had 4 glass tipped B-17 or B-24 bomber switches that had a phosphorescent compound in them just like the radium tipped self...
I too have noticed that most old radium dials still glow faintly. Like you say, adjusting the eyes to the dark is now required. That's because the phosphor is...
I had some static on my LENi pro meter. it would stick up about a quarter of the way. when the needle was down, just touching the glass drove it negative. I...

I've found the drier sheets to be very effective. Keep a portion of one in the case, you'll have it if you ever need it. I suppose it would be much cooler to...
right Jay, I was looking at the polonium 210 and the a241 anti static thingees. I have the guts of a smoke detector am241, but your right it didn't seem to...

Just to clarify this thread, there are several reasons your once-luminous thingy is no longer luminous. Damage to phosphor AND use of shorter lived isotopes...
Here is a tidbit from an expert and very competent physics professor friend. After some fun discussions, I am more and more of the belief that any type of Ra...
Yes, if Ra226 was ever present, it will give a strong gamma signal. In the first few years after refining, radium paint becomes more radioactive as daughters...
Earl, I just purchased a 717, but I would like to get a 715. I keep a CDV 700 with a pancake probe in our sheriffs office at the high school where I teach. we...
