Design studies for an X-ray experiment to investigate planetary magnetospheres using solid state detectors, or proportional counters are reported. The detectors, background counting rate, and leakage fluxes are discussed. It is concluded that the best choice of instruments appears to be two separate multiproportional counters for redundancy
