Import Tips
• Document USB as integrated recording function with controller ICs to distinguish from external recorders
• Provide frequency range specs (AM/FM bands) to prove radiobroadcast reception compliance
• Watch for undervaluation pitfalls; include retail packaging showing combined nature to avoid parts classification
