I suspect you are concerned with the Ukrainian situation. This site might be of use.
I use the Radex 1503 as well, it does the job and is a relatively cheap unit for what it can do.
If we’re checking for fallout then it’s best to check after rainfall, place a sheet or towel outside the window and once it rains hold the counter about an inch away.
