What a load of bull-****.

I only know what happened to me. Going on aa trip to Canada, after
examing the
two radios I had with me, after asking me about them and me telling them
(the
border patrol) about them, they let me take the scanner across, but
wouldn't
let me take my shortwave radio across and told me radios that tune between
1620
khz and 30 mhz are illegal in Canada, and that shortwave radios are ilegal
in
Canada, and then they confiscated my shortwave radio.

They also told me that I would get it back when I came back across the
border
back into the U.S. However, I never got it back when I came back across
and
wasn't able to because it had been confiscated as "illegal goods".
