Thanks to all who responded to my post. I will now gently remove the film. It was reassuring to learn that some LCDs were shipped with the film still in place.
As for the generation of x-rays, I doubt that there would be sufficient energy in the removal to do that. Might be a job for the Mythbusters. Again, thanks to all. 73 Kevin VK3DAP / ZL2DAP On 10/07/2012 9:06 AM, Ron D'Eau Claire wrote: > Yes, along with visible flashes of light if you're in darkness and your eyes > have had time to adapt. > > As film photographer old enough to have used sheet-cut film, I learned to > never use that tape on the back of undeveloped negative films. > > Ron AC7AC > > -----Original Message----- > > I read once that pulling Scotch tape off a roll in a dispenser fairly > rapidly will generate x-rays.
