[time-nuts] HP E1938 oscillator

[Rob Kimberley]

Shouldn't we restrict our conversation to timing stuff on this group? I'm
sure there are lots of other restricted items out there to make bombs etc,
but we were talking I believe about OCXOs. In the main the technology we are
discussing is pretty well known in all quarters. As long as you cover
yourself by stating who the end user is, then you are safe. If you are
selling via a third party, then make sure that you are happy with the
references he provides. If not - don't sell.

Weeeeellll, depends how many they need, right ?

There is a big difference between trying to restrict HV caps for nuclear
detonators and 12.7mm bullets...

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
