Shell-model calculations are described for {ital A}=204--212 nuclei. These calculations use the Kuo-Herling realistic effective interactions for hole states and particle states relative to {sup 208}Pb. These interactions contain a bare part and a core-polarization contribution. The contribution of the core polarization was varied to find the best fit to the energy spectra of {ital A}=204--206 and 210--212 nuclei. This and other modifications to the Kuo-Herling interaction---designed to give better agreement with experimental energy spectra---are discussed. Aspects of the spectroscopy of {sup 211{minus}212}Pb, {sup 210}Po, {sup 212}Ra, {sup 210}Bi, and {sup 212}At are presented in order to illustrate the use of the Kuo-Herling particle interaction. Deficiencies in the Kuo-Herling interaction are described and the desirability and possibility of an improved calculation of the interaction is emphasized.
