     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Impact of Inflation
____________________________________________________

   The Company's working capital did not materially change since
June 30, 1995.

   The Company announced on October 23, 1992 a Board of Directors
authorization for the repurchase of up to 500,000 shares of
Common Stock to be made from time to time through open market and
privately negotiated transactions.  Since that time 408,727
shares have been repurchased.  No repurchases were made during
the three month period ending September 30, 1995.

   Inflation has not materially impacted the operations of the
Company.

   The Board of Directors adopted, subject to stockholder
approval, a Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution of the
Company.  See "Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution"
below.

Results of Operations
_____________________

Comparison of three months ended September 30, 1995 vs three
months ended September 30, 1994
_____________________________________________________________

   Cost of Sales as a percentage of revenue for the three months
ended September 30, 1995 was 80% of revenue versus 78% for the
prior equivalent period.  The trend in Cost of Sales as a
percentage of revenue is increasing as sales orders and backlog
continue to decrease.  Included in Cost of Sales are fixed
expenses such as rent; in addition, the Company's Government
contracts and subcontracts require certain fixed expenses such as
quality assurance personnel, which cannot be reduced in
proportion to revenue.  The Company, under its liquidation plan
(see "Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution" below), will
attempt to sell or distribute all of its operating assets and
subsequently cease operations.

   Selling, General and  Administrative expenses for the period
ended September 30, 1995 decreased from the prior period
primarily due to a charge included in the period ended
September 30, 1994 for a non-cash item of $175,000 for the
extension of employee stock options.

   Investment income for the three months ended September 30,
1995 increased primarily due to a higher percentage of funds
being invested in higher yielding U.S. Treasury obligations.

Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution
____________________________________________

   The Board of Directors of the Company has adopted a Plan of
Complete Liquidation and Dissolution for the Company (the "Plan")
to be submitted to stockholders for approval.  Pursuant to the
Plan, the Company intends to sell such of its assets as are not
to be distributed in kind to its stockholders, to provide for
payment of all expenses, liabilities and obligations of the
Company and to liquidate via distributions to stockholders.  The
Board concluded, after consideration of the potential liquidation
value of the Company in relation to its current and historical
market trading values, that liquidation would maximize the value
of the Company to its stockholders.

   Although the Board has not established a firm timetable for
distributions to stockholders if the Plan is approved, the Board
will, subject to exigencies inherent in winding up the Company's
business, make such distributions as promptly as practicable. 
The Company anticipates making the first cash distribution in
1996.  The Board is, however, currently unable to predict the
precise amount of any distributions of cash pursuant to the
Plan.  The actual amount and timing of, and record date for, all
distributions will be determined by the Board of Directors, in
its sole discretion, and will depend in part upon the Board's
determination as to whether particular assets are to be
distributed in kind or otherwise disposed of, and the amounts
deemed necessary by the Board to pay or provide for all the
Company's liabilities and obligations.

   The Company has entered into a letter of intent with regard to
the sale of its Industrial Automation Division.  Revenues for
Industrial were 13.8% of the Company's consolidated revenues for
the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995.  The consummation of the
transaction contemplated by the letter of intent is subject to a
number of conditions, including the execution of a definitive
purchase agreement.  No assurances can be given that the
transaction will be completed.  The consummation of the sale of
the Industrial Automation Division is not contingent upon
stockholder approval of the Plan.
