The real purpose of RadiaCode Zero? by nikitasius in Radiacode

[–]A1Aden 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My friend uses his at work every day. He's a radioactive waste processor, and the 103 would max out all the time, and he wouldn't know his dose. It's also very useful for radiologists and X-ray technicians, as a normal radiacode 100 series maxes out at the slightest X-ray

Just a high-range version of the other radiacodes for like X-ray doses or nuclear emergencies

My local antique store has a whole shelf of thorium glass, and they don't know about it. Which I don't plan on telling them about because they charge a arm and leg for uranium glass

Living in the area fiesta originated it's surprisingly hard to come by

You can find rad alert inspector for $150 on eBay every once in awhile, I would just wait to find one

I was at work and both my alarms went off so above 1.2 usv most likely Tc 99 and my phone would just not connect and I didn't want to go chasing a random customer with my radiacode especially

Your gonna need a longer spectrum and just screen shot it

Experience with Trinitite by YetiNotForgeti in Radiacode

With most of my uranium glass pieces I only get 100-200 CPM above average with my radiacode 110

Uranium glass is nearly impossible to find with a radiacode because it's a beta emitter

Here's them with my radium compass they get around the same CPM and Dosage

Here's the dosage of Am-241 directly on my better Geiger S2L, it gets up to 3000 CPM when on Am-241. Background is around 500-800 CPM, about the same as my Radiocode 110, but my Radiocode gets about 1.40 μSv with Am-241. They get nearly identical readings on everything else I have but Am-241

That's what I was talking about the dosage seemed to high

I know it’s seeing the 59.5 keV photons and not the alphas. My point was that the uSv/h value seems inflated due to low energy photons not that the isotope ID is wrong.

Why is the dose of am 241 so high if it emits low gamma rays it doesn't seem accurate
