[sdiy] Overseas shipping (was: Senso's garage sale)

[Altitude]

You should be worried.  The airlines take a "take no chance" stance on stuff
that they deem suspicious.  I had a customer at work who shipped a large
hardware data logger/analyzer (not music related) that looked a lot like a
big modular.  The airlines determined that it looked like a bomb so they
called a bomb squad and for safe measure they blew it up at the airport (as
in strapping explosives to it).  The unit was $60K.

Hi,

I certainly wouldn't like to carry random electronic components in
hand-luggage in this climate :)

Check-in luggage would probably be okay (but I'd still be worried!)
