Peter said:> *It should go in you packed baggage. Some places get very funny about radio equipment in carry-on luggage. It's definite no no in the middle east where you could easily find yourself under interrogation if it's found. > 73's Peter VK4JD* I have travelled each year for some 15 years now from UK to VK and back sometimes via Singapore, Bangkok, but mostly Dubai. Radio gear has been carried everytime without problem. a 70cm/2m handy has been on my person each trip. Last 7 years my K3 has been the bulk of my cabin luggage. No problems but occasional query to look at it or check for explosives/ drugs whatever. never been asked for a licence. Ger in yourcabin luggage means you can keep it under observation. Better than insurance I reckon.! Agreed, certain countries have a phobia about photography *and* Radio. Having passed (overland) through 15 African countries with such equipment I am aware, but keep calm, look happy and dont press anyone. Commonsense and Patience are a virtue, !! Been there and have the tee shirt etc David G3SCD/ VK3DBD ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected]
