error finding DataStore: The specified device was not found

I presume because the hardware needed is missing. I don't see anything at all about these, will there be instructions to get one at all ? Will they be available to the general public ?

I find this project very interesting and will probably buy a detector if the science will be useful.
However, how about drivers for the sensors? Will they be generic and included in the kernel of major Linux distros?
Will you ship the sensors all over the world, or only to specific countries?
Also, how useful is one isolated sensor compared to several in the region? I believe this is the problem at QCN@home, where a single sensor is not really that useful.

Looking forward to learning more about your project!

Thanks for your explanations. I'll be looking forward to the release of the sensors.

Cost of detector will be around 100PLN (25-30GBP) and it is only cost for device - we do it as non-profit organisation.

Soon as we find all details we will publish software sources and updated hardware diagram.

Yes, that price include Geiger tube.

Well, based on current exchange rates that's about 36-48 USD. So all that remains is determining what it would take to ship the detector with a geiger tube to a US location.

Might work out better to have a US based distribution point for folks living here. Although, even that may not be enough to prevent damage due to shipping handling. :-)

so i finally got one wu for my win7 host.

it is stuck at 0.00% for over 2.5 hours now. i know i don't have a monitoring device yet and you are still in software-test-stage, but should we run these wus at all or are they stuck (will they finish)

thanks for an answer

Is the sensor available 'off the shelf' and available to the general public, or is it something that needs to be made specifically for this project?

If it is easily available, I'm happy to find one in the UK and give it a try. Even if it's only available to the trade, i.e. business buyers, I can still get one. Part number?

Slightly hijacking the thread, a couple of questions:

1) Is there any point in running the project on more than one host in a given location. I'm thinking in terms of validating results. By location I mean within one house, office or whatever rather than town or city.

2) Where will be the best place to put the sensor? Inside a building? Outside? I guess it doesn't matter, but I did my physics degree a *long* time ago :blush: - Oh, just remembered, gamma - Won't matter.

Really looking forward to getting started with this - We have a final year Physics Masters student working for us part time and I'd like to get her and the Uni interested. Also my friend is a DSc and his acedemic contacts could possibly raise a lot of interest in this project :)

Cheers,

Al.

Thanks for the quick reply. I'll wait until you have the sensors available :)

Cheers,

Al.

I see my computers running the test units, so that is good. I am interested in getting a sensor to go next to the QCN project (earthquake) sensor. Shipping will be to New Zealand - a few kilometers away.

I see the GBP/EEuro/USD price - it would be cool if there was an option to pay in bitcoins.
