Subject: [ RadSafe ] X-ray Regulations

Greetings all,
 
I have a question on how y'all are handling training for individuals
using industrial cabinet X-ray systems. Here in California, regulations
were enacted that require training and two tests; a 50 question test on
operating and emergency procedures and a 25 question practical exam. I
presume other states have similar regulations. Most of our cabinet X-ray
machines are similar to the HP Faxitron, lovingly referred to as "pizza
ovens". They are very similar in size/shape/functionality to microwave
ovens, but with fewer operating options. There's a key switch for power
on/off, a dial for time of exposure, a dial for kVp selection and a
"start" button (no popcorn setting ;^)).  Could you come up with 75
questions for operating a 1970s era microwave oven?
 
Seriously, if anyone is doing this I'd sure appreciate a copy of the
tests. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thank you in advance.
 

Donald P. Mercado
