[Elecraft] KX3 in International carry-on luggage?

There are airline regulations regarding batteries so you should check to make sure that your battery sizes are acceptable. Bringing a transceiver though security is usually a piece of cake. I have TSA Precheck which I think makes things easier in US airports but I rarely have had to take my K3S

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 in International carry-on luggage?

I don’t think the battery would be a problem with carry on. I’ve traveled with all sorts of iPhone backup batteries, with a larger capacity and physically bigger than the KX2 or KX3 batteries, and never had a problem. 73, Carl Sent from my iPhone === Carl Jón Denbow,

Take an an ad or manual with you so you can show them what it is. I went through Reagan National, JFK and ElAl, the tightest security in the world, and no one said anything. The rig, coax and antenna wire looked like a bomb to me. It was in carrying-on for the trip over and packed in

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 in International carry-on luggage?

I took my Kx2 on 6 flights this year. Two international. Only twice did a tsa official even open the waterproof box it was in. And that was a newbie who just stared at it for a while until her supervisor took a quick look at it and said “okay” it was fine to carry on. The airlines publish on

I took mine to St Lucia 18 months ago (in a gun case of all things). The only thing they wanted to look at was my bencher paddles. Mike - KI8R On Fri, May 25, 2018 at 8:15 AM, Gerry Hull wrote: > Waiting for my KX3 to arrive. I will be doing some international travel in > the
