Radiation Detected!

Wow, 2nd time in two days that I have had a hit on my PM1703M. 

I was having Lunch at XXX Xxxxxx'x with a friend and while I was seated at the table the alarm Went off several times.  The first time it reached a high of 66 µR/hr.  I glanced around, the only thing I could attribute to the first readings was an aisle over from my table, however, there where other people in the group. 

While eating I got another hit with a high of 138 µR/hr, and again the same group of individuals where walking down the same aisle, except closer to my table by the window.

Finally, about 5 minutes later a gentleman in his early 50's with dark hair and a brown jacket stopped directly up the aisle from my table, he was talking to another heavy set man in a yellow oxford.  The highest reading this time was 237 uR/hr.  As the exited the restaurant the count went down to 10 uR/hr. 

The lowest observed reading was 10 uR/hr after he left the restaurant, the lowest observed level was 13 uR/hr while he was in the restaurant. 

In retrospect, I should have discretely walked through the restaurant and bar, and found out where he was in relation to my table.
