Hi Everyone,
We double checked our readings with our other Geiger Counter and our readings were the same as posted, reason being, Honolulu readings were much higher.
Today the wind is pretty strong , and at the moment, our unit is getting hit with the wind outside under our porch.
We live 1/2 mile from the beach, on a slight hill overlooking the ocean.
Were not as high or inland as the Honolulu station seems to be, yet our readings at the moment are very different that is why we checked it with our other unit, a Digital Geiger Counter with Muller tube Wand .
We understand and have experienced, that readings depend a lot on the wind currents and what they bring with them.
We also notice sometimes, a drastic change in the readings when we take the unit to the beach. Again , depending on the weather currents and whatever the F--k the idiots are doing ( and not telling anybody) with the nuclear plant in Japan.
. Just keeping everyone informed, Knowledge is power!
All is well in Lahaina,
Eat Well, Think Well, and you will be Well,
Keep taking your Potassium iodide, Holy Basil , and Niacin when needed.
LOVE and LIGHT

Thanks in advance.

Tnx for the update, lightstorm!

Either way, sounds like a great place to be sitting on the beach as the sun goes down.
Best

Which readings have you double checked ? There's nothing unusual on your station chart and I'm having trouble working out what you are talking about..... :?:

Dear eatliesndie
Don't worry your head about it.
I was just double checking my readings ( I live on Maui) because in Honolulu (a different island ) the readings were much higher, that's all, no big deal.
we're cool!

No worries, thanks for clarifying. Perhaps be more clear in future...

Namaste.

Honolulu is a station '5' id....EPA site
I am assuming your station is the other site showing, a station '1'....a private site.

Most of the '5' stations read 'higher' than '1's, they are different, more sensitive, etc.

You can't compare numbers, maybe ranges, ie how much each station ranges thru a certain timeframe.

That will give you an idea, if they track together, how things are going.
