NOTE 5         COMMITMENTS
               LICENSES
               --------
               During 1993, the Company entered into agreements for the lease
               and purchase of certain channel licenses and for the lease and
               purchase of transmitting equipment and tower site usage in
               LaCrosse, Wisconsin.

               Pursuant to the agreements, the Company has incurred $366,535 of
               costs related to the channel licenses. The cost of the channel
               licenses is amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 years
               beginning when the Company commenced operations. The Company has
               satisfied its lease requirements to the lessors, and the lessors
               transferred ownership of licenses and assigned the tower rights
               to the Company for $100. The transfer of ownership of the
               licenses was subject to approval by the Federal Communications
               Commission (FCC). On March 4, 1996, the FCC approved the transfer
               of ownership of licenses to the Company. The leases terminated
               upon the FCC's approval of the transfers.

               On March 28, 1996, the Federal Communications Commission
               completed its auction of authorizations to provide single channel
               and Multichannel Multipoint Distribution Service (MMDS) in 493
               Basic Trading Areas. The Company won bids in three markets;
               Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC; Wausau-Rhinelander, WI; and Stevens
               Point-Marshfield-Wisconsin Rapids, WI. The total amount bid for
               these licenses, after a 15% small business credit, was
               $3,046,212. On April 5, 1996, the Company submitted a payment of
               $239,502, that, coupled with its initial deposit of $65,120, made
               up the initial 10% of the down payment for acquisition of these
               licenses. On June 28, 1996, the Federal Communications Commission
               called for the second 10% of the down payment before the
               authorizations were issued. The Company had until July 8, 1996,
               to submit a balance of payment of $304,622 to satisfy the initial
               down payment total. Under confirmation of receipt of down
               payment, the FCC would issue the authorizations. On July 8, 1996,
               payment of $118,936 was submitted to the Federal Communications
               Commission to cover payment on the two Wisconsin markets of
               Stevens Point and Wausau. License fees payable to the FCC of
               $951,479 for the two Wisconsin licenses will be made over the
               next ten years in quarterly payments. Interest charged for this
               installment plan would be based on the rate of the effective
               ten-year US Treasury obligation at the time of the issuance of
               the authorization plus two and one half (2 1/2) percent.

               On September 1, 1996, the unpaid license fee payable of $171,175
               for the Hickory, NC, license was defaulted. According to Section
               21.959 in the FCC MDA Audit Information Package, a maximum
               default payment of three percent of the defaulting bidder's bid
               amount would be due to the FCC. This amount, $65,544, was charged
               to operations in 1996. The remaining amount, $120,142, of the
               deposit submitted to the FCC for Hickory, NC, was recorded as a
               refundable deposit at December 31, 1996. In addition, the Company
               will be liable to the FCC for the difference between the
               Company's winning bid and a lower winning bid received by the FCC
               in a subsequent auction of this license. The FCC has not yet
               announced plans to re-auction the Hickory, NC, license.

               COSTA RICA LICENSES
               -------------------
               On February 7, 1996, the Company signed two agreements for the
               acquisition from Melvin Rosen (the "Seller") of three companies
               that together hold 18 frequency licenses for broadcast of pay
               television (or "wireless cable") services in Costa Rica together
               with related equipment and contracts with subscribers for pay
               television services. These agreements were amended and restated
               on February 22, 1996. The closing of the three acquisitions was
               consummated on February 23, 1996.

               In the first acquisition, the Company, through Fepeca deTournon,
               S.A. ("FdT"), a new, wholly owned Costa Rican subsidiary
               corporation of the Company, acquired all of the outstanding
               shares 

                                       7
<PAGE>



               of common stock of Televisora Canal Diecinueve, S.A., a Costa
               Rican corporation ("Canal 19"), for a total purchase price of $3
               million, $1 million of which was paid at the closing and the
               balance to be paid one year after the closing with interest at
               the rate of 3.6% per annum. The payment of this deferred amount
               is secured by all of the acquired shares of stock of Canal 19 and
               of Grupo Masteri, discussed below.

               In the second acquisition, the Company, through FdT, acquired all
               of the outstanding shares of common stock of Grupo Masteri, S.A.,
               a Costa Rican corporation ("Grupo"), for a total purchase price
               of $1 million paid at the closing in the form of restricted
               shares of the Company's common stock representing approximately
               six (6) percent of the company's total outstanding shares. The
               Company has agreed to provide the seller certain registration
               rights with respect to these shares.

               The Company operates its wireless cable pay television business
               in Costa Rica through another wholly owned subsidiary corporation
               known as TelePlus, S.A. ("TelePlus"). The Company acquired
               TelePlus from Seller on February 23, 1996, and in consideration
               thereof, agreed to pay Seller a lump sum amount equal to $50
               times the number of subscribers under contract with TelePlus in
               excess of the 1,700 subscribers purchased from Seller at a date
               one year after TelePlus has six pay television channels
               broadcasting to the public. TelePlus began broadcasting six pay
               television channels in October 1996. Currently, TelePlus has
               approximately 4,000 subscribers.

               The cost of the channel licenses is amortized on a straight-line
               basis over 40 years beginning when the acquisition of the
               licenses was consummated.

NOTE 6         COSTA RICAN REVENUES AND EXPENSES
               Costa Rican revenues and expenses were calculated monthly using
               the currency exchange rate for Costa Rican Colons into United
               States Dollars determined at the close of the business day on the
               last day of each applicable month. The exchange rate on June 30,
               1997, was approximately 230 Colons per 1 US Dollar.

NOTE 7         LOAN RESTRUCTURE
               On February 12, 1997, the Company and Seller entered into an
               agreement providing for the restructuring of the $2 million note
               given by the Company to Seller as payment for the acquisition of
               Canal 19. This agreement was amended and restated by a letter
               agreement dated February 21, 1997. The agreement, as amended and
               restated, provided for the Company to make a payment of $625,000
               toward reduction of the principal balance of the note on or
               before March 7, 1997. The remaining principal balance, plus
               accrued interest thereon, was to be paid on or before February
               23, 1998, provided that, with an additional payment of $100,000,
               the Company could extend such maturity date for an additional
               period of six months. The Company paid Seller a deposit of
               $50,000 on February 24, 1997. The $50,000 deposit was to be
               applied toward the principal balance of the note provided,
               however, that if the $625,000 principal reduction payment was not
               timely paid, Seller could retain such deposit. The Company failed
               to pay the $625,000 payment, the $50,000 was retained.

               On May 19, 1997, the Company entered into a Debt Restructuring
               Agreement with the Seller for the restructuring of the $2 million
               debt into a convertible debenture to mature in 12 months with
               interest to accrue at 12% per annum (7% to be paid monthly and 5%
               at maturity). The principal amount of the debenture is $2 million
               plus certain expenses owed or reimbursable to Seller at the issue
               date of the debenture. At the Company's option, $1 million of
               this amount may be extended for an additional period of 12 months
               with interest to accrue on such amount at 15% per annum (8% to be
               paid monthly in arrears and 7% to be paid at maturity). The
               Seller has the option, exercisable within six months of the issue
               date of the debenture, to elect or extend the maturity date of
               the debenture of an additional 12 months, in which event,
               commencing on the first day of the 13th month after the issue
               date of the debenture, one-half of the principal amount will
               accrue 

                                       8
<PAGE>



               interest at 12% per annum (7% to be paid monthly in arrears and
               5% to be paid at maturity) and one-half of the principal amount
               will accrue interest at 15% per annum (8% to be paid monthly in
               arrears and 7% to be paid at maturity).

               As consideration for this debt restructuring, the Company agreed
               to issue to the Seller (i) 180,000 shares of the Company's common
               stock with piggy back registration rights, (ii) a warrant to
               purchase 500,000 shares at $1.00 per share, and (iii) a warrant
               to purchase 500,000 shares at $5.00 per share. Under the
               Agreement, the Seller received the right to nominate two members
               to the Company's Board of Directors until such time as Seller
               exercised the conversion rights under the debenture and received
               a release from any liability in connection with the Costa Rica
               acquisition.

               The debenture is convertible by Seller into the Company's common
               stock at any time after the issue date prior to payment of the
               debenture on at least 30 days' advance notice to the Company. The
               conversion price is equal to the lesser of (1) $.50 per share of
               common stock or (2) a price per share of common stock equal to
               the average of the closing "bid" for the Company's common stock
               as reported on NASDAQ for the five trading days immediately prior
               to the conversion date. The Company also will reserve for
               issuance upon conversion a sufficient number of shares of common
               stock and will register such reserved shares and maintain an
               effective registration statement for such shares.

               If the Company defaults in its obligations under the debenture,
               then Seller will be entitled to a transfer of all stock of Canal
               19, Grupo and TelePlus and the right to purchase all capital
               assets of the Company in Costa Rica for fair market value. The
               capital assets of TelePlus consist primarily of subscriber
               contracts, transmission equipment and subscriber reception
               equipment necessary for the operation of the Costa Rican wireless
               cable television service.

               Upon consummation of the debt restructuring, two existing
               directors and the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer
               resigned from their positions, Seller and his designee were
               appointed to the Company's Board of Directors and Seller was
               appointed the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer. As
               a result, a change in control of the Company is deemed to have
               taken place.

NOTE 8         FINANCING - STOCK PURCHASE
                On November 25, 1996, the Company accepted a Subscription
               Agreement for a total of 500 shares of its Series A Convertible
               Preferred Stock at a price of $1,000 per share (the "Preferred
               Shares"), 250 to Amber Capital Corporation and 250 to Investor
               Resource Services, Inc. (the "Buyers") for a total Subscription
               price of $500,000. Each Buyer delivered $50,000 at closing
               ($100,000 total), and a promissory note for $200,000. Each buyer
               paid an addition $50,000 ($100,000 total) against the Note on
               January 8, 1997. The balance of the Note, which was due on
               January 31, 1997, was not paid, and the Company and the Buyers
               have agreed to terminate the balance of the Subscription
               Agreements and cancel the Notes.

               On March 14, 1997, Aurora Capital purchased a total of 100 shares
               of the Company's Series B Convertible Preferred Stock for a total
               price of $100,000.

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

               The Company operates wireless cable television systems in
LaCrosse Wisconsin (the "LaCrosse System") and in the Central American country
of Costa Rica (the "Costa Rican System"). Since beginning its initial wireless
cable television system in LaCrosse in September 1994, the Company has reached a
level of programming services delivered to approximately 1,300 subscribers as of
June 30, 1997. On February 23, 1996, the Company began providing services for
approximately 1,712 subscribers in its newly acquired Costa Rican company
TelePlus, S.A. It relaunched a newly defined system on September 15, 1996.
Installation of new subscribers into the system began after all existing
subscribers who desired continuing services were upgraded. As of June 30, 1997,
the Costa Rican System had approximately 4,000 subscribers. On March 28, 1996,
the Company successfully bid for authorizations to 3 markets;
Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC; Wausau-Rhinelander, WI; and Stevens
Point-Marshfield-Wisconsin Rapids, WI. The areas in Wisconsin are designated as
future wireless cable television systems. The NC market has been abandoned.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         THREE MONTHS ENDING JUNE 30, 1997
         ---------------------------------
               The Company had revenues of $262,314 for the three months ended
June 30, 1997, compared to $125,232 during the same period in 1996. Revenues
were primarily generated from subscription fees, installation charges and
subscriber cable equipment sales. The Costa Rican System generated approximately
58% of the revenue during the 1997 period, while the LaCrosse System generated
approximately 42%.

               Cost of sales for both the Costa Rica System and the LaCrosse
System for the three months ended June 30, 1997, were $31,404, reflecting
expanded operations in Costa Rica. During the comparable period of 1996, the
Company had a cost of sales of $22,806.

               Expenses for the three months ended June 30, 1997, consisted
primarily of broadcast costs, general and administrative expenses, and interest
expense. The Costa Rican System, the LaCrosse System and corporate office had
total operating expenses of $667,178 for the three month period. During the
comparable period of 1996, the Company had operating expenses of $446,622. This
increase in operating expenses reflects the increase of costs relative to cable
hardware accessories necessary to accommodate the increase in subscriber
services and the additional expense of the Costa Rican System in comparison to
the previous year. It also reflects the inherent costs associated with
expansion.

               The Company had a net loss of $486,677 for the three months ended
on June 30, 1997, in comparison to $346,754 during the same period in 1996. This
increase in net loss reflects the continued build-up of operations in Costa
Rica, the operation of the LaCrosse System, and the professional services
necessary to assure compliance with FCC, SEC, and Costa Rican regulation.

         SIX  MONTHS ENDING JUNE 30, 1997
         --------------------------------
               The Company had revenues of $488,422 for the six months ended
June 30, 1997, compared to $208,445 during the same period in 1996. Revenues
were primarily generated from subscription fees, installation charges and
subscriber cable equipment sales. The Costa Rican System generated approximately
56% of this revenue during the 1997 period, while the LaCrosse System generated
approximately 44%.

               Cost of sales for both the Costa Rica System and the LaCrosse
System for the six months ended June 30, 1997, were $68,657, reflecting expanded
operations in Costa Rica. During the comparable period of 1996, the Company had
a cost of sales of $37,895.

               Expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1997, consisted
primarily of broadcast costs, general and administrative expenses, and interest
expense. The Costa Rican System, the LaCrosse System and corporate office had
total operating expenses of $1,358,673 for the six month period. During the
comparable period of 1996, the Company had operating expenses of $726,332. This
increase in operating expenses reflects the increase of costs relative to cable
hardware accessories necessary to accommodate the increase in subscriber
services and the additional expense of the Costa Rican System in comparison to
the previous year and reflects expansion costs.

               The Company had a net loss of $1,001,001 for the six months ended
June 30, 1997, in comparison to $537,271 during the same period in 1996. This
increase in net loss reflects the continued build-up of operations in Costa
Rica, the operation of the LaCrosse System, and the professional services
necessary to assure compliance with FCC, SEC, and Costa Rican regulation.

LIQUIDITY
- - - ---------
               On June 30, 1997, the Company had property and transmission
equipment valued at a cost of $1,449,694 net of adjusted depreciation as
compared to $1,218,805 at June 30, 1996, and $1,365,235 at December 31, 1996.
This increase in property over the past year primarily reflects the
capitalization of the Costa Rican System.

               During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company used cash
primarily to fund operating losses, purchase transmission equipment and for
costs accompanying its capitalization of the Costa Rican System. Cash decreased
from $26,618 on December 31, 1996, to $17,826 on June 30, 1997 primarily due to
the payment of accounts receivable during this period.

               See Note 8 to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report, with respect to a debt restructuring
and contemporaneous change in control which occurred in May 1997.

               Profitability will be determined by the Company's ability to
maximize revenue from subscribers while maintaining variable expenses.
Significant increases in revenues will generally come from subscriber growth.
Currently, the Company has eight employees domestically and twenty-three
employees in Costa Rica. There are additional plans to increase employees and
expand operations in Costa Rica.

               Although incremental equipment and labor installation costs per
subscriber are incurred after a subscriber signs up for the Company's wireless
cable service, such costs are incurred by the Company before it receives fees
from the subscribers and are only partially offset by installation charges. To
sustain subscriber growth beyond its initial base in the LaCrosse System and the
Costa Rican System, the Company will need to generate sufficient operating
revenues to enable it to continue to invest in subscriber reception equipment
and installation or raise additional debt or equity capital. In addition, to
develop and launch additional wireless cable systems, the Company will need to
raise additional capital. There can be no assurance that operating revenues will
be sufficient to sustain subscriber growth. The Company is currently exploring
various sources of additional financing, but has no commitments in this regard.
There can no assurance that additional financing, if required, will be available
on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all. Failure to secure additional
financing might have a material adverse effect on the Company.
