Event Description	On 9/10/03 at approximately 12:45 CDT, the slide bar associated with the posi-lock interlock device on an AEA Technology Model 660B (S/N B1215) radiography camera became stuck such that the source could not be repositioned following retrieval. The camera was being used at a Steel Forgings facility in Shreveport, LA. The source (40 Curie Ir-192) was in the secured position within the camera at the time. No personnel exposures occurred. The slide bar was subsequently freed up, however a replacement control device has been sent to the job site.
