Electronic Pocket Dosimeter Calibration

[Debby Steva <dps3c@virginia.edu>]

Radsafe:

We recently purchased several ALOKA Model PDM-107 electronic pocket
dosimeters.
The literature says they are calibrated using 40 keV X-rays and a slab
phantom.
I have ideas as to how I might meet these criteria, but before
reinventing the wheel,
does anyone out there have any personal experience calibrating these
particular
dosimeters?
