I have traveled to Europe/Caribbean a few times with my KX3. I just packed it in my (carry-on) suitcase or in my backpack and never had a problem. I didn't pack it with batteries, because I could always just plug in a universal adapter. You might choose not to bring batteries if you can get a good AC power adapter--just bring the appropriate plug adapters.
Also, I learned the hard way, the antenna is more important than the radio! I used an end-fedz which worked great only after I strung it out away from the hotel building--all the steel in the building just ruined the signal. Get it high and as far away from other structures as possible. Let the internal antenna tuner do it's magic. I had a blast--and worked friends in the USA with the KX3. Good luck and have fun! ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
