We   have   audited   the   accompanying  balance   sheet   of   Edge
Communications,  Inc. as of March 31, 1998 and 1997 and  the  related
statements  of income and retained earnings, and cash flows  for  the
years  then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility
of  the Corporation's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.   Those  standards require that we plan  and  perform  the
audit  to  obtain  reasonable assurance about whether  the  financial
statements  are  free of material misstatement.   An  audit  includes
examining,  on  a  test basis, evidence supporting  the  amounts  and
disclosures  in  the  financial statements.  An audit  also  includes
assessing  the  accounting principles used and significant  estimates
made  by  management,  as well as evaluating  the  overall  financial
statement  presentation.   We  believe  that  our  audit  provides  a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In  our  opinion, the financial statements referred to above  present
fairly,  in  all  material respects, the financial position  of  Edge
Communications, Inc. as of March 31, 1998 and 1997 and the results of
its  operations  and  its cash flows for the  years  then  ended,  in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                      EDGE COMMUNICATIONS, INC.
                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
             FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31,1998 AND 1997

- --------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION

Edge  Communications, Inc. (the Corporation) is a wholesale  provider
of  prepaid  phone cards.  The Corporation was originally  formed  on
July  1, 1995 as a limited liability corporation using the name  Edge
Communications,  LLC.   On September 5, 1996, the  limited  liability
company  transferred substantially all of its assets and  liabilities
to   a  newly  formed  corporation,  Edge  Communications,  Inc.    A
combination  of  the operating results and cash flows  of  these  two
entities  has  been presented for the year ended March 31,  1997,  in
order  to present comparative operations of the Edge Companies.   The
Corporation is located in Gaithersburg, Maryland.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Accounting
- -------------------
The  accompanying  financial statements have  been  prepared  on  the
accrual  basis  of accounting, in accordance with generally  accepted
accounting principles.

Accounting Estimates
- --------------------
The  preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted  accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and  assumptions  that  affect the reported  amounts  of  assets  and
liabilities  and contingencies, if any, at the date of the  financial
statements,  and  income and expenses during  the  reporting  period.
Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
- -------------------------
All highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of three
months or less are considered cash equivalents.

Inventory
- ---------
Inventory is stated at lower of cost or market.

Fixed Assets
- ------------
The  Corporation's  fixed assets are stated at cost  and  depreciated
over the estimated service lives of the assets at various accelerated
and straight-line rates.

<PAGE>

Start-Up Costs
- --------------
Start-up costs were capitalized and will be amortized ratably over  a
60-month period.

Investments
- -----------
Investments held by the Corporation consist of interests  in  U-Dial,
LLC (U-Dial) and First Regional Telecom, LLC (First Regional).  These
investments are both start-up companies and are accounted for on  the
cost  method  as  the Company has less than a 20% interest  in  these
entities.   Dividends  received from the companies  are  included  in
other  income.   As  of  March 31, 1998, the Corporation  deemed  its
investment  in U-Dial to be worthless and therefore wrote  off  their
investment in this entity.

Income Taxes
- ------------
The  Corporation is qualified as an S Corporation under the  Internal
Revenue  Code and applicable state statutes.  Under an S  Corporation
election,  the  income  of  the  Corporation  flows  through  to  the
stockholders,  to be taxed at the individual level  rather  than  the
corporate level.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Bad Debts
- ---------
Management   recognizes  bad  debt  expense  in  an   amount   deemed
appropriate based on a review of the accounts.

NOTE 3: CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

Financial  instruments that subject the Corporation to concentrations
of  credit  risk include cash and certificates of deposit, which  are
invested with financial institutions.  While the Corporation attempts
to  limit its financial exposure, its deposit balances with financial
institutions may, at times, exceed the limits insured by agencies  of
the  U.S. government.  The Corporation has not experienced any losses
on such deposits.

<PAGE>

NOTE 4: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The  Corporation has a loan payable to DCP Holdings, LLC  (DCP)  with
interest accruing at a rate of 8% per annum.  All members of DCP  are
shareholders in the Corporation.

In  addition,  the Corporation has had various loans  receivable  and
payable from related parties as shown on Exhibit A.

NOTE 5: NOTES PAYABLE

The Corporation has a revolving loan note with NationsBank which may,
at  the  bank's sole and absolute discretion, lend to the Corporation
such  sums  of money as may be requested up to, but not exceeding  in
the  aggregate  at  any  one time outstanding,  the  face  amount  of
$300,000.  The sums advanced are payable to the bank on demand,  plus
interest  equal  to  the  prime rate.   The  note  is  secured  by  a
certificate of deposit for $300,000.  At March 31, 1998 and 1997, the
outstanding loan amounts were $100,000 and $232,800, respectively.

NOTE 6: LEASE COMMITMENTS

The  Corporation  has  a  three  year  lease  for  office  space   in

            2001                12,267
                               -------
                               $71,147
                               =======

The  Corporation  also  leases two automobiles.   The  monthly  lease
payments of $832 expire within one year and amount to $5,190 for  the
year 1999.

NOTE 7: SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On  April  1,  1998,  the Corporation agreed to be  acquired  by  DCI
Telecommunications, Inc. (DCI) a telecommunications company based  in
Stratford,  Connecticut.   Subsequent  to  year  end,  DCI  filed   a
registration statement in connection with this transaction  with  the
Securities  and  Exchange  Commission.   It  is  expected  that   the
acquisition  will be accounted for as a pooling of interests.   As  a
result of the acquisition, Edge will become a subsidiary of DCI.
