The U.S. District Court in San Diego recently sentenced a Chinese tourist to three years in prison, for attempting to illegally export a military-grade radio to China.
Li Qingshan, 34, pleaded guilty last year to one count of conspiracy to attempt to export defense articles without a license, for buying a Harris Falcon III AN/PRC 152A handheld radio in San Diego, with the intention of shipping the radio from Tijuana, a border city in Mexico, to China.
