Polish DP-75 Geiger Counter

- Polish DP-75 Geiger Counter, with alarm functions and a dosimeter charging port. The DP-75 Geiger counter was the replacement counter for the DP-66 series used by the Polish People's Army and is still in use with Republic of Poland, it is a very nice Geiger Counter unit, relativley compact and can measure reading from a 0.1x to 500x MilliRoentgen and Roentgen scale.
A headset can be plugged in to hear clicking an an alarm and it also runs off of three D cell batteries, meaning you can easily get batteries for it, I personally use rechargeable D cell batteries as it's a lot cheaper in the long run.

Important, I realised today there was some wrong info in this video, watch this one for an update on how the Geiger multiplier table works.

I'm so glad you have a review of this, I've just bought one of these. All I need now is a couple check sources, haven't had any luck finding any yet.
Crazy how time has changed technology
I must admit those old machines are fascinating, much cooler than the new stuff really.
And easy to handle, instrustions were everything. Not for you but for the whole military unit, alas.
Yeah actually better in some ways, for example this can identify radiation of lower and higher levels than a smaller modern phone sized Geiger counter.
[Heavy breathing as the geiger counter SCREAMS into your ears while trying to shovel graphite back into the molten reactor core]
I guess this doesn't really scream though as it ticks far more quietly, more like whispers radioactive death lol

It’s like a chubby, stylish version of the AN/VDR’s. The leather accents really tie the whole kit together nicely.
and the lovely bakelite material
its pretty cool to see older technology still functioning today! This is very similar to my dp-5v, but has a few extra features that are pretty cool, I might have to pick one up.
Yeah I've got a DP-5 to do a video on, a lot better really, this is sort of an upgraded DP-66
Lovely video, I've always found geiger counters interesting but this video has gotten me searching for one again.
So I'm here to bother you again! I found a Soviet DP5-A but the seller doesn't know if it's functional or not, what do you reckon is a good price?
See you at your next stream!
DP-5 geigers tend to all be over £100 from what I've seen. This is a better model than the DP-5 but some people prefer the DP-5, bear in mind the DP-5 uses an obsolete battery format so you may struggle to use it.
That handle of Polish and Slovak Warsaw Pact participants :) VERY useful, really.
As in the carry handle on the wooden case?
I have same model! Quite good GM counter for its price, vintage model, but if is still working it can detect very low radiation levels from background radiation to post-apocalyptic nuclear war radiation 500R/h (very deadly dose - run away if you detect it). Of course is a bit big, heavy, needs 3 D-3 batteries available from Poundland in the UK (or R-20 batteries in Poland), also can be powered from any DC 10-30V source but plug is a bit awkward.
Yeah the issue I've found with smaller units like my Soeks is that they tend to be a jack of all trades Geiger that can't take serious radiation levels for very long before overheating.
Great video man. You should try and put a piezoelectric speaker on through the headphone jack to amplify the clicks. I did the exact same thing on my DP-5V and it's loud.
Cheers, just ordered one, hopefully it works okay, was only £2 anyway
Weaponsandstuff93 Yea man just place the two wires from the speaker into each headphone plug and tape it down to keep the wires from falling out. The sound should register much louder and it's really cool.
Great video! Looking to buy one of these. Guessing this is a good meter for low level background radiation and high level when in a nuclear disaster?
I recently bought this unit, but It doesn't make any noise unless the head piece is plugged in. Is there anything you have to do to correct this?
Good video I really want a Geiger counter dosimeter for checking my poster and interesting to have. Also you whispering ?
Was because I wasn't filming it in my room and didn't want anyone to moan that I was talking to myself lol
Weaponsandstuff93 o lol
Would you recommend a DP66 or DP75, witch is better (excluding price). Thanks
DP75 is definitely better, it's a bit more compact, seems a bit more durable in some ways, has the alarm function etc and most importantly has a higher top end radiation reading ability, this has a X500 R/H function where as the DP66 is X200 R/H same as the Soviet DP-5
i really like the new video! but i have a question not related, do you have a candian c4 gas mask?
Sadly not
@@Weaponsandstuff93 oh.
Is that dial radium, you said it glows in the dark
Retro military equipment like this counter looks like time machine from cyber punk movie
Yeah the amount of recycled old technology in sci fi movies is quite funny
What Geiger counter do you recommend me to buy
Probably this one, something like the Soeks 01M is a lot more compact, but this is a lot more durable and retro
Sup
Its like 1am in hk
With a Geiger counter in my hand
I'm a-goin' out to stake me some government land
Uranium fever has done and got me down!
I know that song
@@Weaponsandstuff93 It is popular in Fallout series
Didn't know what so much things was Radioactive
I see you own the manual for the DP-75. I have searched high and low and have not found a circuit diagram of this machine. May I ask the daring question if you could photograph or scan the circuit diagram at the end of the manual?
If you’re still looking for it I have the Manual and could send you a image of it
It’s actually one of my favourite parts of the entire manuel also love the log book and being able to see who else has used it in the past
Where i can buy the speaker
Dope
Yeah the older stuff is a lot cooler IMO
Weaponsandstuff93
Definitely. Mostly these but Also the Gas Masks, Always loved them.
Can you make a video about the soviet ID-1 dosimeter?
I've never seen one for sale but it appears very similar to the DKP-50 in this video
@@Weaponsandstuff93 i found some for sale on Ebay
I dont think the dial works on mine it make small ticking sounds on 0.5 mR setting though
Could be a broken ampere display, unless you have a check source it's hard to test if Geigers are working.
@@Weaponsandstuff93 thanks
Like
I have a giger Counter
What model?
Cinda second but nah
Лике
Which one is better GP-5 or GP-5M?
GP-5M as it has a voice diaphragm.
@@Weaponsandstuff93 thanks
Hey can you do military helms
I've already done videos on military helmets.
