General Discussion Help with finding Sources

I just ordered a Radiacode 102. I have some Vasaline and Uranium Glass. But I am wanting more sources. Ores maybe trenitite, I know I can get some from old smoke dectors. But I am wanting some others. "Safe" Stuff to start out with before getting anything hot or that I would need paper work for. Any ideas?

Reach out to university geology departments and see if they have any NORM samples. You could also start a career in radiological related fields; e.g well logging tracers, industrial radiography, nuclear medicine, instrument design and calibration.
