I actually have a few "real" fallout meters and KI03. I know some folks who know you. Kirk Paradise is a friend of mine. I just wanted to know how to build a KFM so that if I'm cought out somewhere and need to build one in case of an emergency.
Will this meter detect any fallout rad from the Japan nuke reactor release from the past two days if I am in LA? I would guess that the these ill winds are on the way?
@goldfingerly As of now I wouldn't think so. The meter loses charge naturally and any spike in radiation would be below what's naturally in the environment.
@goldfingerly The meter wasn't designed for continuous monitoring. The meter was designed to give an indication if it's safe to leave a shelter after a nuclear event. I suppose using it daily "may" indicate an increase in ionizing radiation day to day, but that's only a guess on my part.
I wish you'd show how to build this thing from household materials and tell what you used to make it, so that if we were NOT near a KFM or an actual CDV 700 or something, we could build one of these at work or where ever we are at the time of a nuclear incident.
I love those X-RAYS where you sit down or stand up and you place your chin up to this chinrest and this wall like thinggy with the X-RAY FILM IN IT STARTS SPINNING AROUND YOU.
Great. NOW I am afraid of going the dentist.

That was really great. Nothing like seeing a KFM in action. Next we need a test of a NukAlert to see it work.
Thanks
