RE: To Landauer's Luxel Dosimeter Users

          Jo,
          
          Hi how are you?  There is a "training" packet available from 
          Landauer for just that purpose.  As for the readings...  Yes we 
          get readings in the single digits.  The biggest issue (for us) 
          is/was the control subtraction.  If you don't, or if they don't, 
          then you have numbers that look out of the norm for that 
          individual or group.  If your going bimonthly then the issue is 
          enhanced.
          
          Your set-up, use and return of the proper controls is one area to 
          be on top of.  We have been dealing with this in a mix of monthly 
          and bimonthly badges and the need for controls for both 
          frequencies.
          
          Hope all is well...  See you at Lowell Night out in Phili?
          
          Regards,
