Posted - 05/21/2012 : 21:39:11 Hi, I just received my GMC-300 yesterday. Bought via ebay.
At first, it looks like working normally, reading 0.12uSV/hr or something like that. But, after a few hours, it reads like this... 14,615CPM and 4.872 mR/h right on my desk. It does get same huge reading after factory reset.
What's wrong with this unit? Should I send it back for repair? (I'm living in South Korea tho).
Regards, Nate Park

Would you please let me know where should I send this unit for adjustment/exchange to?

Posted - 05/22/2012 : 11:36:05 It seems the tube needs a longer aging time.
All new Geiger Counter tubes need a aging process before to let it reading stable. The aging time may be different between tube and tube.
Switch it off for a few minutes and then turn it on again. Let it work for a few days continually.
If the problem does not go away after a few weeks. Then you need to send it back for adjustment/exchange.
