[Elecraft] Taking KX3 on Airlines -Any issues/hassles with TSA/etc there days - with Bio-Engg 12V 7Ah Lithium Battery as Carry On Luggage

[Mike Murphy]

I traveled to St. Lucia with my KX3, matching amplifier and power supply. The only thing TSA was interested in was my bencher paddle. 

I had a copy of my license in my carrying case, just in case they were interested. They were not.
