[RE-wrenches] traveling with digital meters

[Rebekah Hren]

I agree, check probes, carry meters, TSA is too inconsistent to figure out
if it's always going to be let through. However, I just barely squeaked
through entrance customs last week, there was a $2000 limit for bringing
equipment into country. Check and make sure that you won't have to pay
customs taxes or get your meters yanked at customs!
