Years ago, when I was in graduate school, I transistorized a PRI 107C and a PRI 111B. I made a printed circuit board that was the same size as the original...
Does anyone have schematics on the Minimonitor II or 125 pocket GCs? Anything on the XETEX 415 dosimeter? Thanks in advance.... Bill Beamon KD4FNC bbeamon -at-...
Ken, Sounds like a bargain. Do you have a PayPal account? If so, I'll take it now, if not I'll still take it but will have to clear it with my better half. ...

Hi, Nearly all the Ludlum handheld units use a "Unimorph" piezo-ceramic sounder. Generally (e.g. models 12 and 16) driven by a '555 timer wired as a pulse...
I-131 is a strong Gamma emitter, with over 81% probability of a 364 keV gamma per disintegration. Radiological half life is 8 days. The biological half life...
