              COMARCO ANNOUNCES RESULTS OF CHINA LAKE COMPETITION


     YORBA LINDA,  CALIFORNIA,  May 26, 1995....COMARCO,  Inc. (NASDAQ:CMRO) was
verbally notified by Navy contracting  officials late today that it has not been
selected  for award of the  contract to support the Naval Air Warfare  Center at
China Lake and Pt Mugu,  California.  This contract  consolidates eight existing
contracts,   including   COMARCO's   current  effort  at  China  Lake.

     "We are  disappointed  that we were not  selected,"  commented  Mr.  Don M.
Bailey, President and CEO of COMARCO, Inc. "While we had hoped that our 30+ year
relationship  supporting  the Navy at China  Lake would  continue,  we are still
extremely  proud of the quality of support we  provided in all our  interactions
with that customer.  This  procurement  has absorbed  resources for almost three
years, and while it is never pleasant to lose,  resolution will allow COMARCO to
move forward and focus greater efforts in our promising wireless  communications
and other government business areas.

     "Navy  contracting  officials have verbally informed us that they intend to
exercise  an  existing  four month  option on our  contract  which is  currently
scheduled  to end on  May  31,  1995.  Our  effort  at  China  Lake  represented
approximately  15% of our revenues and 12% of our operating  income in the first
quarter. Most costs associated with this effort are directly attributable to the
contract  itself,  so there will be few  residual  costs not  reimbursed  by the
customer.  Our goal is to attempt to maintain our  historical  profit  margin in
this business.

     "I want to  acknowledge  and  thank  all the  employees  involved  with the
current  effort at China Lake,"  concluded  Mr.  Bailey.  "This was an elongated
solicitation  effort,  and the  support to the  customer  continued  at its same
exceptional  level  of  performance.   That  is  directly  attributable  to  the
professionalism of our staff."
