Last updated: April 2026 dataSimple battery-powered radios with no integrated recording or playback capability — from pocket AM/FM receivers to weather-band emergency radios — are the commercial core of SITC 76222, the most basic segment of the portable broadcast receiver family. The combination of self-contained power and the absence of sound recording or reproducing apparatus defines the heading and distinguishes it from all three related receiver categories. Emergency preparedness radios, including NOAA weather-alert units, are a notable end-use segment that sustains demand for this otherwise mature product category. Importers should confirm that no media playback function is present, as even a basic SD-card reader with playback would shift classification.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Yes, provided they operate without an external power source (hand-crank generators and solar panels are self-contained power sources, not external connections) and do not include sound recording or reproducing apparatus. Emergency radios with only AM/FM/NOAA reception and no media playback capability fit squarely within 76222.
Ancillary functions such as a digital clock, alarm, or LCD frequency display do not alter classification, as they do not constitute sound recording or reproducing apparatus. The classification remains under 76222 as long as the primary function is radiobroadcast reception and no audio recording or media playback capability is present.
