Description

Welcome to the Alpha Beta Gamma Society.
This group is for amateurs interested in building, collecting, repairing, modifying, discussing, and learning about Geiger Counters and other Radiation measuring equipment. We often stray into Electronics, Radio, Astronomy, Optics, Microscopy, and many other aspects of measuring or exploring the Physical Universe.
These pages are a compendium of informative articles structured to instruct the new Home Lab operator in science of Radiation Detection and Measurement. Only the latest corrected and updated versions of articles will appear here for reference.
For chat pages, questions, etc. go to the current edition of GeigerCounterEnthusiasts.

Home made X-Rays fro experiments and radiophotography.
FYI, any hard vacuum tube when mated to some high voltage will produce some X-Rays. The old style Tv set rectifiers got so bad at this that measures eventually
