Dear Sirs/Madams:

We have read Item 4 of Form 8-K of Datametrics Corporation dated February 25, 
1998 and have the following comments:

  . We agree with the statements contained Paragraphs (a)(1)(i); (a)(1)(iv); 
    (a)(1)(v); and (a)(3).

  . With respect to the statements contained in paragraph (a)(1)(ii), the report
    of Deloitte & Touche LLP ("D&T") on the Registrant's financial statements 
    for the fiscal year ended October 26, 1997 was modified due to a departure 
    from generally accepted accounting principles with respect to the 
    classification of certain spare and repair parts inventories as current 
    assets. D&T's report also included an emphasis paragraph concerning the 
    Registrant's ability to continue as a going concern.

  . We have no basis to agree or disagree with the statements contained in 
    paragraph (a)(1)(iii). Such recommendation had not been communicated to D&T 
    prior to or at the time of D&T's resignation.

Yours truly,

/s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP
