Agreed, you can go to <http://www.tsa.gov/travelers/> or in particular <http://www.tsa.gov/travelers/airtravel/prohibited/permitted-prohibited-items.shtm> to find out what is and is not allowed carry-on or checked in the USA. As others have suggested I would be careful about large batteries (larger than a 'D' cell). Spillable lead-acid are not allowed except for in wheelchairs for example. Some airlines have additional information and resources, so you may want to check their web sites as well. -Michael, VE3TIX (I have carried my FT-847 as carry-on with no problem on 2 international flights, but no SLA batteries) _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
