[R-390] fwd: bunches of R-390A's,etc for sale

Sure you can get back across the border with the radios as long as you  
don't hide alcohol, tobacco, firearms, drugs and similar "commodities"  
in them.... ;-)

I brought back from Canada military surplus radios a number of times.  
Among them was that huge 6 ft tall ex-Canadian Navy 500 W Canadian  
Marconi transmitter. Not that it was ever asked of me, but I carried a  
copy of my amateur licence with me, just in case. I even hear stories  
that some people encounter customs agents who are hams themselves...
