            Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market on a first-in,
            first-out basis.

NOTE 4:   Investments consisting of municipal bond funds, are classified as
          securities available for sale under the Statement of Financial
          Accounting Standards No.115, "Accounting for Certain Investments
          in Debt and Equity Securities" and are recorded at fair value. 
          However, unrealized gains and losses have not been reported as a
          separate component of stockholders' equity as they were immaterial
          as of June 3, 1995 and May 28, 1994.

NOTE 5:   Accumulated depreciation and amortization of property, plant and     
          equipment was $6,757,003 at June 3, 1995 and $6,987,284 at February
          28, 1995.

NOTE 6:   On March 2, 1995, the  minority stockholders of General
          Microcircuits (GMCC) exercised their option to require the Company to
          purchase, in fiscal 1996, 15,000  shares of GMCC common stock at a
          cost of $ 279,000, thereby increasing the Company's ownership in
          GMCC from 92% to 97%.  This transaction was accounted for by the
          purchase method of accounting with the cost of the additional
          ownership recorded as costs in excess of fair value of net assets
          acquired.  As of June 3, 1995, $279,000 due to the minority
          shareholders was included in liabilities on the balance sheet.

NOTE 7:   The agreements relating to the Company's 7-day   Demand Industrial 
          Development Revenue Bonds contain several restrictive covenants.
          The agreement with the letter of credit issuer requires the Company
          to maintain a minimum level of tangible net worth as defined.  After
          giving effect to the results of operations for the quarter ended 
          June 3, 1995, the Company required and received a waiver that modified
          this requirement to the Company's tangible net worth level as defined
          in that agreement as of June 3, 1995 until February 28, 1996.  Because
          management anticipates compliance with the original tangible net worth
          covenant as of February 29, 1996, the Industrial Development Revenue 
          Bonds debt is classified as long term debt.  In connection with this
          covenant the Company is required to provide cash collateral of 
          $500,000 for purposes of securing and meeting the next principal 
          payment on the bonds in October, 1995.  Additionally the letter of
          credit issuer added a covenant requiring the Company to not record
          a net loss for the fiscal year ended February 29, 1996.  The Company
          is otherwise in compliance with the restrictive covenants contained in
          the bond agreements.


NOTE 8:   On May 27, 1994, the Company purchased 178,200 shares of its Common 
          Stock held by Joseph Falkenstein, a beneficial owner (as defined by
          Securities and Exchange Commission regulations) of more than 5% of
          the Company's common stock for $1,425,600, the then prevailing market
          price on the American Stock Exchange.

NOTE 9:   In May 1995, the Company was named as a defendant in a legal action
          whereby the plaintiff is alleging ten causes of action in excess of
          $2 million in damages on each of the first nine causes of action
          and $250,000 on the tenth cause of action, arising out of the
          normal course of its business.  Based upon the facts and
          circumstances known by management at this time, management believes
          the ultimate outcome of this litigation will not have a material
          impact on the financial position of the Company.

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

Results of Operations

For the Quarter Ended June 3, 1995 compared with the Quarter Ended May 28, 1994.

In the first quarter of fiscal 1996, net sales were $4,404,996 and the net loss
was $881,100 compared with net sales of $5,033,502 and earnings of $54,368 for
the first quarter of fiscal 1995.  A decrease in sales of microwave components
and hybrid microcircuits products more than offset a slight increase in sales
of fiber optics products when comparing the sales for the first quarter of 
this year with the comparable quarter of last year.  The decline in operating
results is attributed to the lower sales and lower gross profit margins due to
competitive pricing in the declining military market, start-up costs on new 
fiber optic products, technical problems on new product development, and 
one-time expenses associated with cost reduction actions.  Management 
anticipates that the technical problems will diminish in the second quarter.

Cost of sales, as a percentage of sales, increased during the current quarter to
75.6% from 66.6% during the comparable quarter of last year due primarily to
competitive pricing, technical problems on new products, and a decline in sales
without a corresponding decrease in fixed overhead costs.  Management's efforts
to reduce costs, principally at the Amityville location, resulted in a
reduction of personnel levels in engineering and manufacturing during May 1995.
One-time expenses of approximately $60,000 in connection with this staff 
reduction were recorded in the quarter.  The full benefit of these reductions
in staff implemented at the end of the first quarter will be realized through
the remainder of this fiscal year at an estimated savings of approximately 
$325,000.  Selling and general and administrative expenses increased in the
current quarter compared with the comparable quarter last year primarily due 
to the increased selling expenses in promoting new and existing products.  
Research and development costs increased significantly due to a decrease in
customer funded programs and approximately $60,000 of Israeli costs for which 
the corresponding grant applications have not yet been approved.

During the first quarter of fiscal 1996, sales orders booked were $8.0 million 
and the closing backlog was $13.4 million compared with $6.2 million and $9.7 
million respectively, for the first quarter of fiscal 1995.  With significant 
first quarter orders, closing backlog of $13.4 million was strong compared to
fiscal year-end February 1995 of $9.9 million.  

As management anticipates a  return to profitability during the balance of 
fiscal 1996, no tax benefit was recognized against a net loss during the current
fiscal quarter.  The effective corporate income tax rate for the first quarter
of fiscal 1995 was 35%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

June 3, 1995  compared with February 28, 1995

At June 3, 1995, the Company's ratio of current assets to current liabilities
was 3.7 to 1 compared to 4.1 at February 28, 1995.  

During the first quarter of fiscal 1996, cash flows provided from operations 
amounting to approximately $802,000  were utilized principally to purchase 
capital equipment for $248,000.  Accounts receivable declined $2,311,000  due
to reduced first quarter 1996 sales as compared to a high level of fourth 
quarter fiscal 1995 sales, which receivables were substantially collected in
the first quarter of fiscal 1996.  Inventories increased by $680,000 because
of lower sales and work in process on increased orders.  During the quarter the
Company incurred a liability of $279,000 for the purchase of General
Microcircuits' stock from minority stockholders.  The Company expects to spend
up to $500,000 during the remainder of the year for capital equipment.

The agreements relating to the Company's 7-day Demand Industrial Development 
Revenue Bonds contain several restrictive covenants.   The agreement with the 
letter of credit issuer requires the Company to maintain a minimum level of 
tangible net worth as defined.  After giving effect to the results of operations
for the quarter ended June 3, 1995, the Company required and received a waiver
of this requirement through February 28, 1996, that modified this requirement
to the Company's tangible net worth level as defined in that agreement as of
June 3, 1995 until February 28, 1996.  Because management anticipates compliance
with the original tangible net worth covenant as of February 29, 1996, the
Industrial Development Revenue Bonds debt is classified as long term debt.  In
connection with this covenant, the Company is required to provide cash 
collateral  of $500,000 for purposes of securing and
meeting the next principal payment on the bonds in October 1995.  Additionally,
the letter of credit issuer added a covenant requiring the Company to not record
a net loss for the fiscal year ended February 29, 1996.  Assuming the tangible
net worth covenants were in effect, the Company would have had no unrestricted
funds available for the payment of cash dividends at June 3, 1995.   Management
anticipates that the Company will be in compliance with this covenant at the
1996 fiscal year-end.  The Company is otherwise in compliance with the 
restrictive covenants contained in the bond agreements.

The Company believes that its present resources, including available credit, are
sufficient to meet its needs for the foreseeable future.
