1. A method for calibrating a drive level of a non-radioactive calibration source, comprising:

  • measuring a response of a radiation detector to background radiation;

    measuring a response of the radiation detector to the background radiation plus a radiation reference;

    measuring a response of the radiation detector to the background radiation plus the non-radioactive calibration source; and

    adjusting the drive level of the non-radioactive calibration source until the response of the radiation detector to the background radiation plus the non-radioactive calibration source substantially matches the response of the radiation detector to the background radiation plus the radiation reference.
