My nephew traveled from Denver to KC with his last summer and the screeners
asked him to pack it in his checked in luggage.

I plan to take my 7x7 Arrow antenna with me to the Fort Worth symposium. I'm
not taking much other stuff, so I was hoping to just put it in a carry-on
bag.  Has anybody had trouble hand-carrying a disassembled Arrow antenna on
an airline flight recently?  I'm concerned that a paranoid airport security
screener might think it could be used as a weapon.
