thats right as long as you are only suppying information your fine
if however you KNOW he is 'going' to be doing something illegal
then your an accomplice.

For all you know he is learning to be an engineer that works on this stuff
and is just furthering his education. Stop and think about that for a sec...
HOW do people LEARN to build these new circuits and equipment ?
They have to learn it somewhere..... If learning was a crime we'd all
be living
back in caves.

So you're saying if you advise him how to accomplish his goal, and he gets
busted by the Feds, you could not be charged as an accomplist?

Incorrect .... knowledge is NOT illegal, its the implementaion of
such
knowledge

example --- knowing HOW to build a BOMB is not illegal, Building
one
IS.

If you're in the U.S., any help to do that would be illegal.
