If transmitters are not allowed then arrest everyone carrying a 
cellphone or laptop with wifi.  Batteries? ditto.  Those devices 
don't work very well without a battery.  Loose battery might have a 
question asked.  There are sealed batteries that have certification 
for air travel, but I suspect this is not really a problem.

I have carried a ham radio in carry-on many times with no problems 
(US flights).  Cannot comment on international flights.
