                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 JUNE 30, 1996
                                  (UNAUDITED)

1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION -

         The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.  However, certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
omitted or condensed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC).  In the opinion of management all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation
have been included.  The results of operations and cash flows for the three
month periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of
operations for a full year.  These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the Company's March 31, 1996 audited financial statements and
notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-KSB.

         The Company declared a three-for-two stock split, effected by means of
a 50% share dividend, paid to owners of record as of the close of trading June
5, 1996, payable on June 28, 1996.  All share and per share information in the
accompanying financial statements have been adjusted to give retroactive effect
to the stock split.

2.       EARNING PER SHARE -

         Earnings per share is based upon the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents.  For
the periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, per share information was computed
pursuant to the rules of the SEC, which require that common stock issued by the
Company during the twelve months immediately preceding the Company's initial
public offering plus the number of common shares issuable pursuant to the grant
of options issued during the same period, be included in the calculation of
shares outstanding using the treasury stock method from the beginning of the
period presented.

Primary and fully diluted earning per share were the same for all periods
presented.

4.       FACILITY HELD FOR RESALE -

         The $1.3 million facility held for resale relates to the purchase of
the Company's new manufacturing and administrative facility on February 25,
1996.  The second phase of the transaction, which was consummated on May 1,
1996, after the Company completed the renovations required to accommodate the
intended use of the facility, involved the sale and leaseback of the building.
The terms of sale included payment by the purchaser of the full $1.3 million
original purchase price and the Company agreeing to a seven year lease with a
five year option to extend.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995

NET SALES.  Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 1996, increased
approximately $2.543 million, or 224.4% from the three months ended June 30,
1995.  This was due to approximately $3.038 million of sales of the Microcell
product line, or 82.6% of net sales, in the quarter ended June 30, 1996 compared
to approximately $114,000, or 10.1% of net sales for the quarter ended June 30,
1995.  Sales of the Company's cellular products will represent an increasing
percentage of net sales in the future, if the Company's ongoing strategy is
successful.


GROSS PROFIT.  Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 1996, increased
approximately $1.336 million or 211% from the three months ended June 30, 1995.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased to 53.5% from 55.8% for the
comparable period.  The higher gross margin during the quarter ended June 30,
1995 is primarily due to much lower than anticipated costs incurred in
connection with a contract which generated approximately 30% of the quarter's
net sales.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS.  Selling, general and administrative
costs for the three months ended June 30, 1996, increased approximately $555,000
or 365% from the three months ended June 30, 1995.  This increase was caused
primarily by increased personnel and advertising costs incurred to increase
sales in the cellular communications market, increased commissions caused by
substantially increased sales and increased costs associated with the Company's
stock being publicly traded such as accounting, legal and investor relations
costs not required to be incurred in the quarter ended June 30, 1995.
Additionally, due to increasing levels of sales, increased administrative
personnel and costs were necessary to support a rapidly growing company.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS.  Research and development costs for the three
months ended June 30, 1996, increased $146,000 or 90% from the three months
ended June 30, 1995.  This increase was due primarily to the employment of
additional technical staff required to develop new products for the cellular
communications, PCS and paging markets.  However, research and development cost
expressed as a percentage of net sales decreased to 8.4% from 14.3% for the
comparable period due to the substantial increase in net sales.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. The provision for income taxes for the quarter ended
June 30, 1996, was 37% of pre-tax income.  The difference between the rate used
and the statutory rate of approximately 40% was due to research and development
tax credits available to the Company which reduce taxes payable and tax free
income generated from certain investments.  For the quarter ended June 30, 1995,
the statutory 40% rate was used.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

Historically, the Company financed its operations primarily from internally
generated funds and, to a lesser extent loans from stockholders and capital
lease obligations.  In December 1995 and January 1996, the Company completed its
initial public offering of 1,725,000 shares of common stock (including the
exercise of the underwriters' over allotment option).  Of the net proceeds of
approximately $7.7 million at June 30, 1996, $425,000 was used to repay loans
from certain stockholders and the remainder is being used to expand
manufacturing capability through the leasing and outfitting of substantially
larger facilities, the acquisition of sufficient equipment to produce higher
product quantities, and the employment and training of additional employees
capable of expanding production and sales.  The net proceeds of the offering are
also being used to increase inventory levels and expand working capital
sufficiently to support anticipated higher operating levels.

In October, 1995, the Company entered into a loan agreement with a bank for a
$500,000 line of credit, which is secured by substantially all the Company's
assets.  This line is available for one year, unless renewed, and provides for
draws to bear interest at the bank's reference rate plus 0.75%.  The loan
agreement requires, among other things, that the Company maintain certain
minimum balances in a noninterest-bearing account at the bank.  As of June 30,
1996, the Company has not utilized the line of credit.

The Company believes that the net proceeds from the public offering, together
with cash provided by operations and available under the bank line of credit,
will be sufficient to finance the Company for at least the next 12 months.  It
is possible, however, that the Company will require additional financing if its
business strategy is successful.

Inflation has not had a significant effect to date on the Company's results of
operations.
