                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 MARCH 31, 2000

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND
              DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS:

     A.   The Company is a New Jersey Corporation organized in 1947. The Company
          designs and produces electronic testing and measuring instruments
          including power meters, voltmeters and modulation meters. Recent
          models are microprocessor controlled and are often used in
          computerized automatic testing systems. The Company's equipment is
          marketed throughout the world to commercial and government customers
          in the electronics industry.

          The Company markets and distributes its products throughout the United
          States and abroad via domestic sales representatives and foreign
          distributors. Representatives sell on a commission basis, while
          distributors buy products for resale at discounted ex-factory prices.
          Its representatives and distributors also handle the products of other
          manufacturers, although these are not generally competitive with the
          Company's products.

     B.   Use of estimates - The preparation of financial statements in
          conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
          management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
          amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets
          and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
          reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
          Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     C.   The Company accounts for uncollectible trade accounts under the direct
          write-off method whereas generally accepted accounting principles
          require provision for such expenses under the allowance method. The
          effect of using this method approximates the allowance method as all
          amounts are deemed to be fully collectible.

     D.   Inventories - stated at the lower of cost or market are valued by the
          first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.

     E.   Plant and equipment - Depreciation and amortization are calculated by
          the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes at rates
          based on the following estimated useful lives:

                    Building and improvement                           39
                    Machinery and equipment                          5-10
                    Office furniture and fixtures                    5-10

                         BOONTON ELECTRONICS CORPORATION
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 MARCH 31, 2000

          The accelerated cost recovery and modified accelerated cost recovery
          systems are used for income tax purposes. Cost of major renewals and
          improvements that extend the life of the plant and equipment are
          capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to
          expenses as incurred.

     F.   Financial risk - The Company regularly maintains bank account balances
          in excess of FDIC insurable limits.

     G.   Income taxes - The Company adopted the provisions of Statement of
          Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes"
          that requires a company to recognize deferred tax liabilities and
          assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have
          been recognized in a company's financial statements or tax returns.
          Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined
          based on differences between the financial statement amounts and tax
          basis of assets and liabilities using expected tax rates in effect in
          the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. The
          Company recognized the benefit of net operating loss carry forward
          applying the valuation allowance that requires that the tax benefit be
          limited based on the weight of available evidence and the probability
          that some portion of the deferred tax asset shall not be realized.

     H.   Financial instruments - The Company's financial instruments include
          cash, cash equivalents, trade receivables and payables, long-term debt
          and loans from related parties for which the carrying amounts
          approximate fair value. It is not practicable to estimate the fair
          value of related party loans and long-term debt.

     I.   Stock-based compensation - The Company has elected to follow
          Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock
          Issued to Employees" (APB25) and related interpretations in accounting
          for its employee stock options. Under APB25, because the exercise
          price of employee stock options equals the market price of the
          underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is
          recorded. Effective October 1, 1997, the Company has adopted the
          disclosure only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
          Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation"
          (Statement 123).

         A.   Retirement Plans:

                  Effective July 1, 1989, the Company adopted a defined
              contribution plan for all eligible employees. In accordance with
              Internal Revenue Code Section 401(k), the plan provides for
              elective deferral of up to 15% of total compensation. The plan

              6% of total compensation. Effective October 1, 1995, the Company
              increased the matching contribution to 50% of the elective
              deferral amount of each participant that does not exceed 6% of
              total compensation. The amounts charged to operations for the
              fiscal years ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 were $32,854 and
              $33,792, respectively.

     Contingencies:

         A.   Environmental Contingencies:

                  Follow an investigation by the New Jersey Department of
              Environmental Protection (NJDEP) of the Company's waste disposal
              practices at a certain site that it formerly leased, the Company
              put a groundwater management plan into effect as approved by the
              NJDEP. Costs associated with the plan are charged directly to
              income as incurred. The owner of the site has notified the Company
              that if the NJDEP investigation proves to interfere with a sale of
              the property, the owner may seek to hold the Company liable for
              any loss it suffers as a result. However, corporate counsel has
              informed management that, in their opinion, the lessor would not
              prevail in any lawsuit filed due to the imposition by law of the
              statute of limitations.

                  Costs charged to operations in connection with the groundwater
              management plan for the fiscal years ended September 30, 1999 and
              1998 amounted to $79,855 and $57,205, respectively. The Company
              estimates the expenditures in this regard for the fiscal year
              ending September 30, 2000 shall amount to approximately $80,000.

         B.   Income Tax Contingencies:

                  The Company's income tax returns for the fiscal years ended
              September 30, 1999, 1998, 1997 and 1996 are subject to review.

         C.   The Company remains liable for certain claims by a former
              stockholder until full payment of the Stock Purchase by an
              affiliated company.

         D.   A former employee has charged the Company with wrongful dismissal.
              The Company contends there was no such discrimination and intends
              to contest the suit.

     Contingencies - continued:

         E.   On March 2, 2000, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan
              of Reorganization (see Note 11). The Agreement provides that if it
              is terminated under specific conditions and the Company or its
              Shareholders enter into any acquisition transaction involving a
              third party within one year after such termination, the Company
              would be obligated to pay the Purchasers $100,000 plus certain
              other expenses up to a maximum of $500,000. Management is
              confident that the specific conditions for termination shall not
              arise and that no "break-up fees" shall be incurred.

         F.   Management intends to pursue business alternatives including a
              strategic- alliance, merger or sale of the Company.

</TABLE>

         Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes", requires that the Company record a valuation allowance when it is
"more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will
not be realized". The ultimate realization of this deferred tax asset depends on
the ability to generate sufficient taxable income in the future. The Company has
undergone substantial restructuring changes and has made strategic realignments
of its operations that management believes will result in future profitability.
The losses in recent years and a desire to be conservative make it appropriate
to record a valuation allowance. Accordingly, the Company has provided a
valuation allowance for the portion of the total deferred tax asset that will
not be realized as related to the operating loss carry forward.

                                 MARCH 31, 2000

Income tax laws allow for the utilization of loss carry forwards over periods
not to exceed 15 and 7 years for Federal and State purposes, respectively. In
the event the Company reports sufficient profitability in the future to use all
or a portion of the deferred tax asset the valuation allowance shall be reduced
or eliminated through a credit to expense (increasing stockholders' equity). The
Company has net loss carry forwards for Federal and State purposes approximating
$6,706,500 and $8,327,500 that expire in various years through 2014 and 2006,
respectively. These loss carry forwards can be utilized to reduce future taxable
income dollar for dollar.

The following is a reconciliation  of income taxes at the federal statutory rate
with income taxes recorded by the Company:

NOTE 9 - SEGMENT INFORMATION:

The Company is engaged in the manufacture and sale of electronic test and
measurement equipment and management considers its business as a single segment
for reporting purposes.
The Companies export sales were as follows:

NOTE 10 - EARNINGS PER SHARE:

Earnings per share have been computed by dividing net income by the
weighted-average number of shares outstanding of 2,387,332 for 2000 and
2,314,765 for 1999. Options to purchase a total of 428,268 shares of common
stock at $3.24 per share in 1999 were not included because the exercise price
exceeded the average market price and would have therefore resulted in
anti-dilution. Also in 1999, incentive stock option shares were not included
because they were deemed to be insignificant.

NOTE 11 - CHANGE IN CONTROL OF COMPANY:

Boonton entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the "Merger
Agreement") on March 2, 2000 with Wireless Telecom Group ("Wireless") and WTT
Acquisition Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Wireless. Boonton shall be
acquired by and become a wholly owned subsidiary of Wireless. Under the terms of
the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of the Boonton's common stock shall
be converted into .79 shares of Wireless common stock on the closing date. It is
expected that the merger shall be completed before July 14, 2000. The Merger
Agreement is subject to approval by Boonton's stockholders as well as other
customary closing conditions and requirements. Wireless, headquartered in
Paramus NJ, is a global provider of noise generators used in the
telecommunications field.

Also, on March 2, 2000, Wireless and Boonton executed a Promissory Note whereby
Boonton promises to pay Wireless the sum of Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($250,000) together with interest, equal to the rate of interest
announced on March 2, 2000 by Chase Manhattan Bank to be its prime or reference
rate plus one percent (1%) per annum, as follows. The principal due and any
accrued but unpaid interest shall immediately become due and payable on the
earlier of the 5th business day after the termination of the Merger Agreement or
July 14, 2000. If the note is not repaid in cash then it shall be converted into
225,000 shares of Boonton common stock. If the closing of the Merger Agreement
shall occur before July 14, 2000, or Boonton's obligation to repay the
Promissory Note is cancelled in accordance with a specified section of the
Merger Agreement, the principal due and any accrued but unpaid interest thereon
shall be cancelled and forgiven and Wireless shall release, acquit and discharge
Boonton from any liability under the Promissory Note.

                      MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                     FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
         Net sales for the six months ended March 31, 2000 of $4,117,284 were
$703,105 higher than net sales of $3,414,179 reported for the six months ended
March 31, 1999. Domestic revenues increased by $976,333 due to significant sales
of the new Peak Power/CW Power and RF Volt Meter to domestic customers. Export
sales declined by $273,228. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased
to 44.9% in the current period versus 47.5% for the equivalent period a year
ago. This was due to an increase in cost of goods sold that occurred primarily
because of overtime needed to produce the increased number of units shipped.

         Commission expense increased by $41,356 over the prior year's
comparable period. Research and development expense decreased by $70,220 due to
completion of the new product design at the end of fiscal year 1999. Income from
operations of $198,423 was reported for the six months ended March 31, 2000 as
compared to a loss from operations of $38,185 for the previous year's equivalent
period. Net income of $204,098 was a $311,426 increase over the prior year's
comparable period net loss of $107,328 primarily due to the increased revenues
noted above. Earnings per share for the current period were $.09 versus a loss
per share of $.05 for the prior year's comparable period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
         As disclosed in Note 11. to the Company's financial statements, the
Company has obtained a short term loan for $250,000 from Wireless Telecom Group,
Inc. a company with which the Company expects to merge with on or before July
14, 2000. The proceeds from the note shall be used to pay past due trade
payables. There have been no other significant changes in the Company's
financial condition since the fiscal year ended September 30, 1999 and the
information included in the Company's report on Form 10-KSB should be read in
conjunction with this report on Form 10-QSB.

         Trade receivables at March 31, 2000 were higher than September 30, 1999
as a result of increased sales. Inventory also increased to $1,580,633 and
continues to include a write down of approximately $212,000. The current ratio
at March 31, 2000 decreased to 1.76 as compared to 1.81 at September 30, 1999
and working capital increased to $1,442,159 at March 31, 2000 versus $1,226,783
at September 30, 1999.

         The Company's backlog at March 31, 2000 was $2,738,423 reflecting an
increase of $1,680,677 over the September 30, 1999 backlog. The increase was
primarily due to a $1,112,320 order placed in December 1999 for 8701 VXI
Modulation Meters.
