Chi Square Test

[RON LAVERA <lavera.r@nypa.gov>]

We've used the CHI Square test for many years as a method of checking
the performance of gas proportional detector, scaler equipped
instruments.  We've always assumed that when the tested indicated that
there was not enough variation in the data, that the cause was most
likely due to constant frequency electronic noise reducing the variability
in the count rate.

Would any body out there be willing to share their knowledge /
experience on this one ?

Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.
