[time-nuts] HP E1938 oscillator

[Robert Atkinson]

Hi,
I'd have to agree with Said,
FEI got hit with fines for shipping 1000B OCXO's that were diverted to a
proscribed country. Most major countries that are "allies" of the USA
should be OK though. 
It's surprising what is controlled, very high speed 'scopes, low
inductance high energy capacitors, quite a lot of fibre optic and laser
stuff too.

Robert.

Hello Rick,
 
on the customs issue, you may have to check the items against the
commerce  
control list (CCL Export Administration Regulation) especially section
3A002 I  
believe.
 
Even (or especially!) if they are of "$0" value prototypes.
 
High-tech items such as this "super-high-tech" oscillator cannot be
exported 
into all countries w/o export license. You have to check the list, and
then 
consider each country individually. Usually most western countries do
not 
present an issue except maybe Israel.
 
Fedex for example will ask for a "harmonized code" from the CCL to be  
written on the transport paperwork, and will not export it without
written  
declaration by you.
 
The government can be extremely sensitive to this, that's why some
companies 
like MiniCircuits require a declaration of conformance even when  buying
and 
shipping their parts in the US!
 
It is for example illegal to just sent schematics to China via email
without 
export license...
 
bye,
Said
