[ RadSafe ] Japan FOOD-Beta counts or other in food etc.??

[Paul Rubin]

George: 
I agree with you that the probe is a cylindrical pancake, but the meter I clearly saw on my HD TV was a TCS-312. It had a light blue control area and knob controls, not touch panel. 
The 312 is listed for alpha or alpha-beta scintillation probes, but I guess that it can be set up for GM also. 
Anyway it looks nice. I want one. 

On another topic. I just picked up a nice Victoreen 450P. I can't find a full manual on the web. Anyone have one?
Also how do you think this compares to the newer 451P?

Thanks,
