As the RSO (Radiation Safety Officer) of my company I need a digital survey meter that accurately detects small amount of radiation (less than 1 m/r per hour) to determine the annual dose of members to the general public (which in Texas is 100 mrem). I have searched the web and found many digital meters but the "penny pinchers" wants quotes from different companies and so far the accuracy has been in question. This meter needs to be able to measure such low levels in a format like 0.00 m/r per hour. I might be able able to get away with a meter that measures in micro curies but would prefer a meter that measures in m/r per hr. Any help from someone that has experience in this or knows the make and model number of a very sensitive meter and knows where to get one would be helpful.
