I extracted and averaged 1min CPM counts from my GMC500 and plotted them Feb2019 to Mar2023 of Sunbury Australia.

The detector has never been re-calibrated and I was wondering if my 2019/20 upward drift was the device or was there a general increase in background CPM.

Interestingly Jan22 and Jan23 show a significant dip (summertime).

Any observations welcome and any idea where to get the device re-calibrated in Australia?

Some of the gamma logging sites in the USA run by their federal Environment Protection Agency (EPA) show a similar seasonal variation. It's hard to pin down a definite reason, but soil saturation makes sense. Surface radiation is a combination of sky source (what's left of solar and cosmic after being altered by the atmosphere) and ground-source (from rocks and Radon gas seeping up). Rain or snow can seasonally saturate the soils, blocking Radon seepage. Were Jan 2022 and Jan 2023 higher precipitation times in Sunbury?

I am electronic engineer since 1988. Begin to learn EMI fields around us at february 2019 when in our and other villages mounted cell towers. Later I discovered that they emits more than cell data- mind and health control signals known as V2K (Voice TO sKull)
