Hi All!

I’m Ben, from Manchester in the UK. I operate monitor number 11000032.

I’m a production datacentre engineer by trade but also do electronic & mechanical engineering in my spare time.

Hi

I’m Lars from Oslo, Norway. Operator of 11000016. I’m a developer working as linux sysadmin. I’m into all kinds of projects, especially those involving electronics and free software.

Hello all,

My name’s Laurent, I’m from France but have close ties with Japan as i am involved with the Citizen’s Radiation Monitoring Station (CRMS) which is a NGO created in 2011. http://en.crms-jpn.org/

My wife and myself helped this project in August 2011 after the Fukushima accident while we were in Japan for summer vacation.

At that time i also helped relatives to publish data on http://minnade-map.net/ which is a similar project but it’s not based on automatic data upload but user uploaded data. (I may help letting them know about uradmonitor project in the future).

I’m running unit #11000017. It used to be installed in my office, but i have installed it in our apartment.

A long time Linux users back in 1993, Open Philosphist who was involved in the Zaurus community some while ago, but still working as an IT guy in charge of different systems throughout the world.

I bought my device in order to test drive it, but i plan to buy another one when new models will be available, and ship one in the CRMS lab in Tokyo.

I’m also a safecast bGeigie nano owner, but as i also am the daddy of a 2 1/2 years old son, i didn’t find time to solder it yet.

Thanks a lot Radu for this great project.

Hi to everyone.

My name is Richard and I live in the East Midlands in UK. My day job is almost completely unconnected with physics and nuclear science but I have a number of scientific hobbies of which radiation detection and measurement is one.

I am also handy with soldering iron and have built a number projects including high voltage power supplies for GM tubes and scints, a calibration pulser and various other things. I have assembled and experimented with a number of different GM and gamma scintillation probes.

I have uRadmonitor # 1200000C which is one of Radu’s earlier units – has onboard temp and voltage sensing but no pressure transducer.

Greetings All,
my name is Paul and I live in The Republic of Ireland.
I’m a husband and a dad to one son. Since Fukushima I have been interested in monitoring environmental radiation levels.I found out about the uRADMonitor
network on hackaday .
I think this is fantastic grassroots project and this will be the start of a great site.I believe Radu should be commended for bringing his idea to us and
giving people a way to get unbiased data .
I run unit #11000038 and I installed the unit with no issues …..its been
running like a champ ever since.

Hi everybody,

I’m Martin from France, near Pays de la Loire (remember white wine, you are close to my place!).

I’m a former Network guru (I did Wi-Fi legalize in France in 2002), and by now I am enjoying life between my favorites jobs: extreme photographer (rope access on national heritage and archeologist mission in desert), pyrotechnician (firework making) and hardware/low level design/hacking.

I joined urad network as we are living close to a Nuclear Power Plant (Chinon), and realize how things are really going inside theses places. I met a lot off nuclear workers, and they all told me the same thing: dozen of contractors without knowledge and partial overhaul maintenance. I even heard about leaks that are communicated months after, just to keep tourists in our region…

This network is a good way to have an independent monitoring tool, who can alert people and ONG (like French’s Criirad) about real risks.

BTW, I run unit #11000018!

Hi all,

G’Day from Australia, only the second unit online in the state of NSW, unit #1100002f

All round geek guy, I work with computers these days but I’ve previously been a repair man at Tandy/Radio Shack and other electronic enterprises, also a moderately active ham, n00b astronomer, and general tinkerer with electrons and photons 🙂

cheers

Hi unit users,

I’m Peter from Germany. I am running the fifth unit #11000026 in Germany and i live between 2 nuclear stations in a 50km radius. Only one of them is active.

We in Germany has learned about the accident of fukushima. So the politicians has shut down older nuclear stations. To control this, i like the idea of a free nuclear measuring lan network.

Much thanks to Radu for his idea, this forum and this working network. It is cool to saw the radioactivity all over the world. I’m an electronic and it engineer.

I love hot technology such as Radu made.
