Item 3.        Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

On January 18, 1998, the Reporting Person became subject to reporting by reason
of the  appointment upon the death of his father, Ahmed D. Kafadar, as
co-trustee with four other persons of the Ahmed D. Kafadar Trust which held
1,167,597 shares of OEA, Inc. on the date of death.  On June 2, 1998, the
Reporting Person was appointed co-trustee, with four other persons, of the
Maryanna B. Kafadar Family Trust which owned 568,838 shares.  On August 29,
1999, the Ahmed D. Kafadar Trust transferred 276,391 shares to Shirene Kafadar,
and the Maryanna B. Kafadar Family Trust transferred 200,000 shares to Shirene
Kafadar, and she resigned as Trustee of both Trusts.

The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares held by the
Ahmed D. Kafadar Trust and the Maryanna B. Kafadar Family Trust pursuant to
Rule 13d-4, except that the Reporting Person is also a beneficiary of
approximately 20 to 25% of the Ahmed D. Kafadar Trust's assets and
approximately 25% of the Maryanna B. Kafadar Family Trust's assets.

The securities owned beneficially for which the Reporting Person has sole
voting and dispositive power were received as a result of the Reporting
Person's father's death on January 17, 1998.  The securities owned
beneficially, as to which the Reporting Person has shared voting and
dispositive power, are presently held in two trusts, of which the Reporting
Person is one of four trustees.  Unanimous agreement is required of all four
co-trustees to vote or dispose of the securities, unless the trustees agree
otherwise.

Item 4.        Purpose of Transaction.

(a)  The securities as to which the Reporting Person has sole voting and
dispositive power are held for investment.  No plan known to the Reporting
Person exists relating to the securities held in trusts of which the Reporting
Person is to be one of four co-trustees, although it is possible an
undetermined amount of such securities may be sold to pay the estate tax
obligations of his father's estate by the trusts or distributed to the
beneficiaries and then sold by the beneficiaries who receive such securities.

(b)  None;

(c)  None;

(d)  None;

(e)  None;

(f)  None;

(g)  None;

(h)  None;

(i)  None;

(j)  None.


Item 5.        Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a)  The Reporting Person named in Item 2 beneficially owns 1,942,340 shares,
representing 9.42% of the common stock $0.10 par value.  The Reporting
Person is not a member of a group.

(b)  See Cover Page, nos. 7, 8, 9 and 10;

(c)  None;

(d)  The other co-trustees of the trust referred to in Item 3 are: Charles B.
Kafadar, Shirene Kafadar, Karen Kafadar and Claudia F. Kafadar;

(e)  None.
