Note on RNG/hacking the PC-Geiger counter: If you want to change the RM-60's Time Base Unit, change byte 384 in the aw-rad.set file. [I reverse engineered this; Aware tries to sell software to do this.] This can be useful if you're using counts per unit time instead of inter-count intervals as your raw measurement and are using a hot source like Am241. The RM-60 is a great little toy for those of us not at CERN.
