✦ Synopsis

By using commercially available units, an electrometer and an IBM personal computer, it was relatively inexpensive and simple to assemble a system which permits y-ray-emitting radionucllde activities to be measured in an ionization chamber with an uncertainty of f 0.5% and a reproducibility of + 0.05%.
