I routinely take a Pelican 1510 case with a K2/100, KAT100, SEC 1223 power
supply,
Winkeyer (serial), a small keyboard & extension cable and a small paddle and
connecting
cables.
Sometimes they ask what it is.  Sometimes they look at it and ask what it
is.  Sometimes
I get to take it all out, let them swab it and then pack it all up.  But so
far TSA has never
given me a really hard time.  Miami, Orlando, Detroit, Flint (MI), Newark or
Halifax.
Have a complete inventory, a copy of your FCC license, a copy of your DX
license or CEPT
agreement.  Smile a lot, be pleasant, polite and all the stuff your mother
taught you!
