I've only done it once, and I packed the power supply in my checked baggage [I put a label on it and included a copy of my license]. For the carry-on, I had it labeled with a copy of my license. They asked me to remove it and send it through the machine separately. I don't know what they could see on the X-ray, but it was OK. I have braces on my legs and I carry some scrap metal in my shoulder so I'm total toast at TSA. They were far more interested in me than my radio. While involved in the strip search, my radio and other stuff came out of the machine. My wife collected it for me. If you're not toast at TSA, once they're done with you, they'll want you to get your belongings out of the area.
