AW: [ RadSafe ] Tracer Labs

[Franz Schönhofer]

Gene,

I do not know, how old your sources are, but what I remember from decades
ago, the company used to manufacture radioactivity surveillance instruments,
like for aerosol activity, based on gross beta measurements. I remember the
fierce battle I fought to get my then supervisor from ordering "new" ones
and how delighted I was to get through my plans to renew the Austrian
Environmental Radioactivity by introducing High Resolution
Gamma-Spectrometry. 

I also remember that Tracer Labs was revived (?) by a German company, trying
to get hold in continuous aerosol monitoring after the Chernobyl accident.
Those instruments never worked satisfactorely, even if one would not
consider the outdated gross-beta measurement philosophy. 

Best regards,

Franz

We have an old Tracer Labs source.? Does anyone have the contact information
for them or what ever they have become?

Gene
