              Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1.  Basis of Presentation
    ---------------------

    The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared by the Company without audit (except for the balance sheet
information as of April 30, 1996, which was derived from audited consolidated
financial statements) and, in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments
necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position at July 31,
1996, and the condensed consolidated results of operations and cash flows for
the three-month periods ended July 31, 1996, and July 31, 1995, in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements have been condensed or
omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, although the Company believes that the disclosures in the
consolidated financial statements are adequate to ensure the information
presented is not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements
included in the Company's annual report for the fiscal year ended April 30,
1996.

    The results of operations for the three-month period ended July 31, 1996,
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire
fiscal year.


2.  Per Share Information
    ---------------------

    Net income per share is based on the weighted average common and common
equivalent shares outstanding for each period including common shares issuable
upon the exercise of stock options.

    Net income per share for all periods presented is summarized as follows (in
thousands, except per share data):

</TABLE>

    For the three-month periods ended July 31, 1996 and 1995, fully diluted
income per share did not differ materially from primary income per share;
accordingly, fully diluted income per share has not been presented.

3.  Income taxes
    ------------
                                        
    Income taxes for the respective periods were computed using the effective
tax rate estimated to be applicable for the fiscal year, which is subject to
ongoing review and evaluation by management.

5.  Cash and cash equivalents
    -------------------------

    Cash consists of cash and cash equivalents (defined as marketable securities
with original maturities of 90 days or less) in the amount of $16.1 million and
$15.6 million as of July 31, 1996 and April 30, 1996, respectively, and short-
term investments (marketable securities with maturities of more than 90 days) of
$21.2 million and $23.3 million as of July 31, 1996, and April 30, 1996,
respectively.  Under Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement 115, the
Company has classified its short-term investments as available-for-sale.
Available-for-sale securities are stated at market value and unrealized holding
gains and losses, net of the related tax effect, are excluded from earnings and
are reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity until realized.  A
decline in the market value of the security below cost that is deemed other than
temporary is charged to earnings resulting in the establishment of a new cost
basis for the security.

    The Company's quarterly operating results have fluctuated and may continue
to fluctuate as a result of factors including changes in market demand, prices
of the Company's or its competitors' products, increased competition, new
product introduction by the Company or its competition, market acceptance of new
or existing products, manufacturing yields, the cost and availability of
components, the mix of the Company's customer base or sales channels, the mix of
products sold, the level of international sales and general economic conditions.
In addition, since a significant portion of the Company's business is derived
from orders placed by a few large customers, the timing of such orders has
caused and may continue to cause material fluctuations in the Company's business
and operating results.

</TABLE>

    Revenues of $17.3 million for the first quarter ended July 31, 1996
increased by $2.8 million or 20% from $14.4 million in the comparable quarter of
the previous year. Total revenues of $13.7 million from broadband customers
increased by $3.2 million or 30% compared to the prior year period of $10.5
million due primarily to renewed strength within the Company's core broadband
customer base and the addition of a new domestic broadband customer. Revenues of
$3.6 million from the sale of products for wireless, satellite communications,
and all other applications, decreased $324,000 or 8% compared to the prior year
period.

    Sales to international customers of  $5.2 million or approximately 30% of
revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 1997 increased by $1.2 million or 31%
from $4.0 million in the prior year period.  Sales made through the Company's
subsidiaries in Germany, France and Sweden accounted for approximately 55% of
these total international revenues.

Gross Profit

    Gross profit of $8.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 1997
represented 48.4% of revenue compared to 49.1% in the comparable period last
year.  The decrease in gross margin is primarily related to including the
results of Avitec AB of Sweden acquired in March, 1996.  The Company expects
that the results of Avitec will continue to impact year-to-year gross margin
comparisons.

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

Research and Development

    Research and development expenditures of $2.6 million for the first quarter
of fiscal 1997 increased by $300,000 or 13% from the comparable period last
year.  With a 20% increase in revenue, research and development as a percent of
revenue decreased from 15.7% in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 to 14.8% in the
first quarter of fiscal 1997.

    The Company nets research and development contract revenues against research
and development costs.  The total of such contract revenue for the first
quarters of fiscal 1997 and 1996 were $661,000 and $222,000, respectively.

Sales and Marketing

    Sales and marketing expenditures of $2.4 million for the first quarter of
fiscal 1997 increased by $567,000 or 31% from $1.8 million for the comparable
quarter last year, and increased as a percent of revenues from 12.6% for the
first quarter of fiscal 1996 to 13.8% for the first quarter of fiscal 1997.  The
increase in spending primarily reflects additional spending for advertising and
product promotion including product literature and trade shows as well as
increased personnel.

General and Administrative

    General and administrative expenditures of $1.2 million for the first
quarter of fiscal 1997 increased by $439,000 or 57% from $766,000 for the
comparable period last year and increased as a percent of revenues from 5.3% for
the first quarter of fiscal 1996 to 7.0% for the first quarter of fiscal 1997.
The increase over the prior year period is primarily related to including the
administrative costs of Avitec and the amortization of intangibles assets
related to that acquisition which occurred in the fourth quarter of fiscal year
1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    At July 31, 1996, the Company had working capital of $52.5 million,
including $16.1 million in cash and $21.2 million in short-term investments.
For the year-to-date period ended July 31, 1996, the Company's operating
activities used cash of $.2 million.  Cash from operating activities includes
net income of $1.8 million plus depreciation of $.9 million offset by an
increase in working capital requirements.

    As of July 31, 1996, the Company maintained an unsecured line of credit of
$13.0 million consisting of a revolving line of credit totaling $5.0 million
expiring on May 1, 1997 and a non-revolving line of credit totaling $8.0 million
with a term repayment option expiring on December 31, 1996.  In addition, the
Company has a $2.0 million unsecured credit facility with another banking
institution which expires on September 30, 1996. Interest rates under credit
facilities vary according to market rates of interest. There were no amounts
outstanding under any of these credit facilities as of July  31, 1996.

    The Company anticipates that cash, short-term investments and anticipated
funds from operations will satisfy the Company's projected working capital and
capital expenditure requirements through at least fiscal 1997.
