Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If used in general consumer GPS receivers, not dedicated compasses
Antennas for radio-telephony/GPS sets fall under Chapter 85 if not principally for navigational instruments of 9014.
If for precision measuring instruments outside navigation
Other measuring accessories classify here if not solely for 9014 navigational apparatus.
If as parts of automatic data processing machines
GPS components integral to computers shift to ADP parts under Section XVI.
