REPORT COPYRIGHT VIOLATION IN REPLY
Message Subject Any GLPers own or have access to CDV-715 Geiger Meter? People in Spain are measuring high levels of ionizing radiation with this apparatus.

The Geiger tubes on these things are 65 years past their expiration dates.

If they can't reproduce the behavior on a modern meter then it's bogus.

The CVD-715 use a Ionization Chamber, not Geiger tubes, as detecting element. AFAIK, these can't expire.

Plenty of other parts in there to go bad after 65 years.

Ionization chambers go bad after about 10 years. They actually get more sensitive with age, which is why old smoke detectors go off all the time.
