Feedback Suggest a Correction SpecMaker

The Feedback link allows readers to transmit their comments and suggestions about Practical Gamma-Ray Spectrometry to the publishers and authors. If any errors, typographical or factual mistakes, are found the publishers hope that readers will use the Correction List link to record them so that they can be corrected in future reprints. That link, and the one above, also links to all the corrections that have already been suggested.

SpecMaker allows readers to download the SpecMaker spreadsheet to allow them to create their own Test Spectra so that they can test their gamma spectrum analysis programs, knowing what the peaks area actually are.
