Radioactive Mushrooms vs. Affordable Gamma Spectrometer | This beats ALL Geiger counters!

Do you really need a Geiger counter that can detect alpha radiation to detect alpha emitters? Not necessarily, since radioactive decays are way more complex than you might think.
In this video, I will take my first steps into the world of gamma spectrometry and show how some alpha and beta emitters can be identified by gamma and x-rays!
I will even attempt to identify what makes my radioactive mushrooms radioactive...
RadiaCode-101 dosimeter and gamma spectrometer was donated by Radiascan, which is now Radiacode and updated to 103 version: 103.radiacode....
The RadiaScan-701A (discontinued) donated earlier by Radiascan, which is now Radiacode.com.
