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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 3, 1995 AND MAY 28, 1994

SALES

Sales increased by $1.5 million, or 13% from $11.2 million for the three
months ended May 28, 1994 to $12.7 million for the three months ended June 3,
1995.  The sales increase resulted from increases in Wireless Cable sales
offset by decreases in Satellite Television product sales.  Sales of Wireless
Cable products increased $3.7 million or 100% to $7.4 million.  Sales of
Satellite Television products decreased $2.3 million or 32% to $5.0 million.

GROSS PROFITS AND GROSS MARGINS

Gross profits increased by $974,000 or 30% from $3.2 million to $4.2 million.
Gross margins increased from 28.9% to 33.2%.  The 30% increase in gross
profits is the result of a 12.3% increase in sales and the improvement in
gross margins.  The gross margin increase is a trend which began in fiscal
year 1995 first quarter and has continued through the current year fiscal
quarter currently being reported.  The main reasons for the improvements are:
increased Wireless Cable product sales, and a reduction in Satellite
Television product sales at lower margins accompanied by new product
introductions and lower cost designs in both product lines.  During the
quarter the Company incurred certain manufacturing start-up costs relating to
the introduction of MultiCipher.  These costs had a negative effect on the
quarterly gross margins.  In addition, the Company increased its raw material
inventories in anticipation of future sales demand for MultiCipher.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Research and development expenses increased by $224,000 from $739,000 to
$963,000.  The increase was due to personnel additions, increased equipment
depreciation and higher purchases of research and development materials as
the Company expands its product lines and continues its development of
MultiCipher products.

Selling expenses increased by $59,000 from $993,000 to $1.1 million.  The
increase was due primarily to increases in salaries, personnel additions and
an increased level of international selling expenses relating to the
increases in sales in various international regions.

General and administrative expenses increased by $131,000 from $803,000 to
$934,000.  The increase was due to salary increases and personnel additions.

INCOME FROM OPERATIONS

Income from operations, for the reasons noted above, increased by $560,000 or
81% from $695,000 to $1.3 million.

INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE), NET

Interest and other income (expense), net increased by $115,000 to $57,000
income, net from $58,000 expense, net.  The primary reasons for the change is
increased interest income and cash discounts in the current quarter as
compared to interest expense in the prior quarter.  In addition, in the first
quarter of last fiscal year a $25,000 charge relating to the operating losses
of Micro Pulse, a company in which the Company owns a 50% equity interest was
recognized.

PROVISION FOR TAXES

The provision for taxes for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 is based upon an
annualized tax rate of 35%.  This tax rate assumes savings from benefits
allowed for export sales through a foreign sales corporation formed in March
1993 and research and development tax credits.  The tax rate used in the
fiscal year 1995 first quarter was 36%.

NET INCOME

Net income, for reasons outlined above, increased by $446,000 or 110% from
$852,000 to $406,000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Currently the Company has a $4.0 million working capital facility with
California United Bank at the bank's prime rate (9.0%) plus 1/2% and a
newly-issued $2.0 million capital equipment facility with NationsBank at the
Federal Funds rate (6.0%) plus 2.75%.  In addition, California Amplifier
s.a.r.l., its foreign subsidiary, has an informal arrangement with a French
bank to borrow up to $600,000.  As of June 3, 1995, no amounts were
outstanding under any of these arrangements.  The $4.0 million credit
facility with California United Bank expires on August 1, 1995, however, the
Company has verbal assurances from the Bank that the agreement will be
renewed for an additional year at similar or more favorable terms.

The Company believes that cash flow from operations, together with the funds
available under its credit facilities, are sufficient to support operations
and capital equipment requirements over the next twelve months.

The Company believes that inflation has not had a material effect on its
operations.
