             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(Note 1) For interim financial statements the Registrant estimates its costs
         of sales.

(Note 2) Income taxes

         During the quarter ended September 30, 1993, the Company changed its
method of accounting for income taxes, effective as of July 1, 1993, to 
comply with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 
No. 109 (SFAS 109), "Accounting for Income Taxes."  Deferred income taxes are 
based on the liability method as prescribed by SFAS 109, which requires an 
adjustment to the deferred tax liability to reflect income tax rates 
currently in effect rather than historical rates.  When income tax rates 
increase or decrease, a corresponding adjustment to income tax expense is 
currently recorded by applying the rate change to the cumulative temporary
differences.  As permitted under SFAS 109, prior years financial statements 
have not been restated.  The cumulative effect of adopting SFAS 109 through 
June 30, 1993 was $404,000.  

        Included in income taxes benefit for the period ended December 31, 1993 
was a reversal made in the first quarter of Fiscal June 30, 1994 of federal and
state tax accruals of $400,000 or $.08 per share which are no longer required.

          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, 1994.

   The Company announced on October 23, 1992 a Board of Directors author-
ization 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 trans-
actions.  Since that time 408,727 shares have been repurchased.  No repurchases 
were made during the six month period ending December 31, 1994.

   Inflation has not materially impacted the operations of the Company.

Results of Operations

Comparison of six months ended December 31, 1994 vs six months ended 
December 31, 1993

   Cost of Sales as a percentage of revenue for the six months ended 
December 31, 1994 was 74% of revenue versus 76% for the prior equivalent 
period.  Cost of Sales as a percentage of revenues were lower primarily due
to the settlement of a contract claim with the government for which a major 
portion of the costs had been expensed in prior periods.

   Selling, General and Administrative expenses for the period ended 
December 31, 1994 included a non cash charge of $175,000 for the extension of
employee stock options.  Selling, General and Administrative expenses did not
increase over the prior period by the amount of this charge, primarily due to a 
decrease in commissions and other sales expenses.

   Investment and other income for the period ended December 31, 1994 was
higher than the prior equivalent period due to the sale of floating rate 
preferred stock and the investment of the proceeds in higher interest bearing
securities.

   In 1993, cumulative effect of change in accounting principle is due to a 
recalculation of deferred income taxes in compliance with Statement of 
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109.  In addition, included in Income Taxes
Benefit for the period ended December 31, 1993 is a reversal made in the first 
quarter of fiscal June 30, 1994 of tax reserves in the amount of $400,000
(or $.08 per share) which are no longer required.

   Net earnings for the six month period ended December 31, 1993 included 
$404,000 or $.08 per share from the cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle relating to accounting for income taxes (SFAS No. 109)
and 400,000 or $.08 per share relating to the effects of the reversal of 
income tax reserves as discussed above.

   Deliveries of Torpedo Power Supplies, which remain the Company's current 
major defense product, are currently scheduled for completion in June of
1995.  The Company is attempting to offset a prospective substantial
decline in Defense Electronics orders by increased sales for Industrial
Automation Products and Behlman Electronics as well as seeking niche Defense
Electronic markets such as repair and maintenance of the Company's products
and those of other manufacturers.  However, there is no assurance that this 
strategy will be successful in the long run and the Company anticipates 
sales for fiscal 1995 will be below the prior year's results.

   Due to the nature of the Company's business, there are significant 
differences in period sales and therefore the results for a single period 
are not necessarily indicative of the entire year.

Comparison of three months ended December 31, 1994 vs three months ended 
December 31, 1993

   Cost of Sales as a percentage of revenue for the three months ended 
December 31, 1994 was 71% of revenue versus 77% for the prior equivalent
period.  Cost of Sales were lower primarily due to the settlement of a 
contract claim with the government for which a major portion of the costs had 
been expensed in prior periods.

   Investment and other income for the three month period ended 
December 31, 1994 was higher than the prior equivalent period due to higher
interest rates on investments.

   Due to the nature of the Company's business, there are significant 
differences in period sales and therefore the results for a single period
are not necessarily indicative of the entire year.
