[Elecraft] KX3 in International carry-on luggage?

[Carl Jón Denbow]

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

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.

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!
