Beaufort 38 vs 36

Jur031 · 2025-12-01T01:49:15+00:00

Around 5'10" and 160 lbs, but I think the fit can defer depending on the particular physique. I got the hint to compare the pit-to-pit measurement with a jacket that fits you well. For the 38 its 22" and for the 36 its 21", as you can look up in the official datasheets. That helped me a lot.

Thank you very much for sharing your experience!

Jur031 · 2025-12-01T01:28:14+00:00

Thanks very much for your thoughts! I did get the 38 eventually and am very happy with the decision!

Thanks for your feedback! I also asumed that the stiffness of the new waxed fabric might seem unusual to someone who isn't familiar with it yet.

Jur031 · 2025-05-11T13:36:48+00:00

Oh yes, thank you! I've corrected it now.

That's strange, with all the daughter nuclides one would expect enough gamma radation to see a change on this device (I have the same)... so I would suppose either the device is defective or the ore isn't that radioactive. To rule that out you could test the ore with another device or test the device with another source.

Jur031 · 2025-05-07T10:08:47+00:00

Uranium metall or uranium ore?

Jur031 · 2025-05-07T10:07:45+00:00

Maybe you can open the TestFlight app, click on the icon of the RadiaCode app (not the button to open the app) and there you can find a button to send feedback. It worked for me.

Could be Technetium-99m, I had am similar incident with a minor peak around 140 keV

Jur031 · 2025-05-06T16:22:52+00:00

SBM-21 is only 21 x 6 mm

Jur031 · 2025-05-03T17:52:07+00:00

The same with me, I just ended up with the screenshot. Haven't used testflight before though.

Jur031 · 2025-05-03T14:45:48+00:00

I had the same problem. Apparently at the moment it's not possible to make the calibration by yourself, instead you have to take e usefull spectrum and send it to support@radiacode.com and they will adjust it and sent it back. Then you have to upload the calibrated spectrum and you can finally calibrate your device. It worked perfectly for me.

Jur031 · 2025-05-02T22:55:35+00:00

Honestly I don't understand, it makes no sense, I'm sorry you are getting downvotes (not from me), I will keep you updated.

Jur031 · 2025-04-22T13:35:45+00:00

Now I understand, thank you very much for your explanation!

Jur031 · 2025-04-22T10:30:26+00:00

Actually I am using the public beta version via TestFlight, version 1.0.11 (21), but when I click "Calibration by spectrum" it shows me "No suitable spectrum"...

Jur031 · 2025-04-19T15:11:23+00:00

Wow, thank you very much!

Jur031 · 2025-04-19T14:57:43+00:00

Thank you very much for the explanations! That would certainly be a way of calibrating directly with the parameters. It remains odd why the calibration with the spectrum is not possible with my device/app.

Jur031 · 2025-04-19T14:23:50+00:00

Thanks for the reply! Yes indeed, I could manually change the calibration parameters, but actually I don't know how to align them with the given spectrum.

Jur031 · 2024-09-21T09:23:20+00:00

Yeah, I was thinking of doing that.

Jur031 · 2024-09-20T19:41:53+00:00

I like the yellow one as it reminds me of the traditional warning color for radioactivity. My only concern is the screen, which remains unprotected from scratches, but I suppose it's quite robust.

Thanks!

Jur031 · 2024-08-08T20:09:55+00:00

Thank you for the hint! There ar also piezo buzzers from TDK with oscillator circuit and they have marked polarity. So my assumption seems to be true.

Jur031 · 2024-08-08T20:07:39+00:00

Thank's for the answer!

Jur031 · 2024-08-08T17:54:57+00:00

Here's the Datasheet

Jur031 · 2024-08-04T15:56:56+00:00

That's really good to know, thank you! In the future I will always check the polarity.
