[Scan-DC] Carry mag mount antenna in carry-on luggage?

[Paul - W4ATN]

Interesting, I fly with my CPAP (as carry-on) often an it never been checked. It is a common model and I see many other people traveling with the same soft sided case so ...

And they get all pissed off when they take my CPAP to test and I tell them not to take more than a 30 minute nap so I don't miss my flight!

 I still occasionally fly with all sorts of radio paraphernalia in my carry on, to include HTs, antennas for them, and the occasional small parts kit that probably looks very suspicious under the X-ray machine.  I have never been stopped for that stuff, though I sometimes get stopped for caring a digital camera and they ask me to turn it on.
