Rain swipe (UK)
342cpm rolling count (10x)
(34cpm is my normal)
Location: South Devon, England (10-15miles north of Plymouth)
Altitude 92meters
Time: 01:45hrs (apx)
Date:8th March 2013
Geiger counter: Inspector EXP
Weather: Light raining.
A Ten min timed count came in at 303.5cpm (9x)
First rain in 22days.
I conducted a follow up study and followed two half life steps.
303.5cpm
52.6min later 140.5cpm
52.6min later 80.7cpm
In between the timed counts I did several small two min timed counts to see the alpha to beta ratio and this sample was between 80 - 90% beta radiation .
Wish I had a sodium iodide (NaI) scintillator.
