[50mhz] Radios in carry on luggage

[doc at kd4e.com]

I had two HTs, a magnesium case older-model Toughbook, two large
spare batteries, a package of AA alkaline batteries and other
electronics and had no trouble.

Dept. of Homeland Security/TSA can change suddenly, so be prepared
for the unexpected and downright weird ...
