Overview

This HTS classification, 8525.60.10.10, specifically covers Citizens Band (CB) transceivers. CB radios are two-way radio communication devices that operate on a specific set of allocated frequencies for personal and commercial use, allowing for direct voice communication over relatively short distances. They are characterized by their dedicated purpose as transceivers, meaning they can both transmit and receive radio signals.

This category distinguishes itself from other sibling categories by its specific focus on CB radios, often identified by their adherence to particular regulatory standards and frequency bands distinct from other types of transceivers. For instance, it differs from subcategory 8525.60.10.20, which enumerates low-power radiotelephonic transceivers operating on a different, more limited frequency range.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under 8525.60.10.10. Therefore, the classification rests solely on the identification of a product as a Citizens Band transceiver. Key classification criteria include the operational frequency band, power output, and the device's fundamental functionality as a two-way voice communication apparatus designed for the Citizens Band.
