I take my YB400 all over the world all the time and the most that has
ever been said was I had to turn it on. I also "always" have to turn my
laptop on for international and put it in a tray in the US, take off my
shoes. The go crazy over my camera bag, wipe little cloths around in the
bag, xray and ask lots of questions.
The biggest thing was a little yellow survival kit from REI I always
carry with me because I am "outback" so much, they have opened three of
them and you can't re-close them after they are opened I just throw them
in the trash, cuss a lot and walk off. Some times I get very mad.
In most small countries the checker always have their hand out!!!

Hello all


I have a DX 392, and I am going to Israel in a month. I will pack it
into my checked baggage, but I recall an older copy of Passport saying
bringing a shortwave into some Middle eastern countries is frowned
upon.

Does anybody have any opinions?

Thanks, Jay
