I am just getting ready to leave on my first mini Dxpedition and started to wonder, and worry, how many problems will I face traveling with all sorts of radio equipment and electronics?
For those that routinely make these treks either for contests or DXpeditions, are you faced with grueling questions on why you have this equipment and do you have to explain the whole DXpedition idea. Should I expect that "I am traveling for pleasure purposes and will be using amateur radio while here" should suffice? Of course having the necesary travel documenst and copies of radio licenses goes without saying?
With contest and DXpedition season about to kick off, is there any other travel advice from the veterans out there.
