Import Tips

Provide frequency range specs and block diagrams proving spectrum analysis function to confirm 9030 classification

Label assemblies clearly as 'for spectrum analyzers only' to prevent misclassification as general RF boards

Watch for radiation detection components that might trigger alternative ionizing radiation headings
