Not strictly related to nixies but cautionary nonetheless is what follows. I have had the following items deemed restricted and thus could not be shipped from the USA to me (in Canada):
Heathkit W-7A amplifier Tektronix 130 LCR Meter HP 410B VTVM This has occurred within the last two months. My guess as to why this occurred would be (in order): Selenium Rectifier VR Tube with isotope OA2 VR Tube with isotope OB2 Of course no explanation is given and no appeal is possible.
