Verbose Mode: Mightyohm.com Geiger Counter Kit and Radiation
Chad Lawson is posting a series of videos about learning to make things on his site at verbosemode.tv.

Thanks for the kind words, Chad!
The Mike and Key Amateur Radio Club Swap Meet is next weekend in Puyallup, WA
The 36th annual Mike and Key Amateur Radio Club Electronics Show and Fleamarket will be held next Saturday, March 11th at the Washington State Fairgrounds in Puyallup, WA.
This is one of the best amateur radio events in Washington state and one that I look forward to every year. A couple years ago I came home with a working Hameg HM-507 analog+digital oscilloscope (pictured above) for a hundred bucks!
I have a table at the swap meet this year, and I’ll be selling Geiger counter kits, misc. electronics, and amateur radio gear. Look for the MightyOhm banner.
I hope to meet some local folks there!
