7d Radiation unit? One denying using small number for time taken up (7)


Presumably RONTGEN, but the closest I can get on the wordplay is NEGATOR with N instead of T, all reversed, giving RONAGEN.


Any suggestions?

I agree with your reasoning - and can't make the clue work any better than yourself. Pretty rare for Azed to make an errror though - unless it's a typo on the part of the paper!
Yeah, this one had me scratching my brow, too. Every week, before sending the completed grid off, I scan a copy of it for use in answering others' possible AB queries later. Guess what...having taken that copy out of the desk drawer on seeing your question, I find I sent the wretched thing away with an empty slot where the 'T' should be! Clearly, 'rontgen' is the answer but the wordplay is definitely a muck-up.
It's a certainty that I won't be appearing in the list of winners this time! I hope you do.
