"The readings from all 4 Harrisburg stations were normal for 22 and 23 August. There were some small increases from late 19 Aug through early 21 August. These were 1-1.5 microrem spikes of several hours duration typical of cosmic radiation activity. The spikes occur at all 4 stations at the same times, which is also an indication of cosmic ray activity. The State College station is inoperative, so [there are no] comparison measurements. Usually the Harrisburg and State College show increases at the same time from cosmic radiation."
