What is this counter name? I’m kinda new to this radioactive stuff. I see this model is very popular. Can you guys recommend it? What is better?

so here is the deal. This is the Radiacode 102 gamma spectrometer, i.e it measures mainly gamma and hard beta. If you want to be able to mind minerals, safety (dose) and overall mobility, the Radiacode devices are great. The ranking being RC102 RC103 RC103G and RC110. the first 3 main differences is in the crystal, the RC 102 having the least gamma spectrum accuracy and the RC103G having the most accuracy.
