[R-390] IMPORTANT International meter disassembly

I would think that would depend on someones' tendancy towards developing any
type of cancer, bone disease, liver problems etc... We are not all the same,
and hereditary tendancies can be a big part of the risk. Adding "known" factors
into the equation only heightens the risk...Avoiding things that add to the
count of factors can only help.
Why risk exposure to something that can increase the chance...?
Perhaps the level is very low, and in 99.9% of the cases, "Harmless", but
disregarding the risk should be left to the individual.
Even OA2WA tubes emit radiation, but personally, I'd prefer cheese and
mushrooms in my omelete.... 73 de Jordan....
