I want GM tubes, ion chambers, proportional counter tubes, solid-state detectors, dosimeters, maybe PM tubes and scintillators, and instruments based on these, even if they don't work or are old. I like sensitive instruments, ones that can measure background radiation, but I'll consider anything. I have a 1 ug source of radium and a few found-things sources, but I want something hotter to use with the less sensitive ion chambers. Something calibrated would be much preffered, maybe an old cobalt source. 25 mR/h at 1 foot sounds reasonable. Thank you. * Please send any e-mail replies to me as cornhead@sutro.sfsu.edu
