Import Tips
• Provide S-VHS head drum specs and HD phosphor details to customs for verification of recording integration and display quality
• Avoid bulk packaging that suggests parts; import as complete units to maintain monitor classification over components
• Include user manuals proving simultaneous record/playback operation to distinguish from mere playback devices
