Del Rad Room w/ Radview 50 Generator

Customer saying they are getting high S numbers and image is too light. We tested the rad room and found that the mR we are getting is much lower than the last time we did tests on this room for a PM. We used a keithly triad tester to measure the mR, kv and time. Using the Del generator service manual and a Fluke Scopemeter, we were able to calibrate the kv and mA of the generator. We couldn't calibrate the mas because the service manual procedure calls for the use of a dynalyzer, which we don't have anymore. During cal of mA, we got some very squirrley readings as the mA seemed to fluctuate with each shot. Finally, we were able to get it to give us consistent readings and back to our previous readings from our PM. Something tells me we haven't heard the last of this problem by the readings we were getting....
