To the best of my knowledge the only radioactive item on the Canadian/US sets is the glass bead on the end of the PSU switch. Simple test is to look for brown colouring on dials, meters, etc. Radium lasts a while but the phosporous doesn't. It turns a brown colour that can indicate presence of radium.

Note to self, look for geiger counter at Warren Piece.
