Jesus, Radsafers,
I have found this: http://www.gammascout.com/geiger-counter.html
(scroll down for technical data). For gamma energy response no
details are given, only "from 0.02 MeV". I think you can ask them..

Some applications (measurement results) of GammaScout:

("Trip from Nuremberg to the highest summit of the Mount Kilimanjaro
and back").

As for Kilimanjaro:-), I have found a "twin" photo where measurements
were made with another type of dose-rate meter (November, 2007). The
result on the top was 550 nSv/h:

page was not translated (it is in Russian).
