  • Abstract
    A low power meter has been constructed and tested to measure gamma fields from .1 R/h to 1500 R/h over the energy range of 60 keV to 1.2 MeV. The portable, battery-powered meter consists of a local display unit and remote probe. The display unit indicates gamma intensities via a 4-1/2 digit liquid crystal display (LCD) and a 50-segment bargraph LCD.
