Re: [IRCA] Qatar info

[Chuck Hutton <charlesh3@xxxxxxx>]

I'm not Nick but I've never had any trouble with customs or security in spite of carrying suitcases full of radios, cables, phasing boxes, etc to various DXpeditions. The only question I got was from a Canadian customs agent who asked if my Drake R8 "was some kind of X-box". "Kinda" was the careful response. That was good enough.
