                 Report of Independent Auditors


To the Partners of
Columbia Spectrum Management, L.P.

We  have  audited  the accompanying balance  sheets  of  Columbia
Spectrum  Management, L.P. as of December 31, 1996 and 1995,  and
the  related  statements of income, partners' capital,  and  cash
flows  for the years then ended.  These financial statements  are
the   responsibility  of  the  partnership's   management.    Our
responsibility  is  to  express an  opinion  on  these  financial
statements based on our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits 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 audits provide 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  Columbia Spectrum Management, L.P. at December 31,  1996  and
1995,  and  the results of its operations and its cash flows  for
the  years  then  ended  in  conformity with  generally  accepted
accounting principles.

               Columbia Spectrum Management, L.P.

                 Notes to Financial Statements

                   December 31, 1996 and 1995


1.     Business and Organization

Columbia Spectrum Management, L.P. ("CSM" or the "Partnership"),
was formed as a Delaware partnership in 1994.  It is a limited
partnership comprised of a one percent general partner and six
limited partners.  Four of such limited partners were admitted in
an amendment to the partnership agreement effective January 1,
1995.

The Partnership was organized to provide turnkey microwave
relocation services to personal communications services ("PCS")
licensees in the United States.  CSM services include
engineering, negotiation, program management, legal review and
contract preparation, and cost accounting.

CSM expects to provide substantially all of its relocation
services to PCS licensees over five years, beginning in 1995.
Management is currently evaluating other telecommunications
related business opportunities.  Also, further rule making by the
Federal Communications Commission for mobile satellite services
could increase the number of microwave paths to be relocated in
addition to those currently being relocated for PCS services.
CSM intends to pursue opportunities for telecommunications
services in international markets.

2.      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in
the financial statements and accompanying notes.  Actual results
could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a
maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash
equivalents.

Property and Equipment, net

Property and equipment is recorded at cost less accumulated
depreciation.  Depreciation is computed primarily on the straight-
line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets
(5 to 7 years).

Revenue Recognition

Service revenues are recorded upon delivery or milestone billing
points generally consistent with work performed.  Management
believes this method of revenue recognition is not materially
different from percentage of completion accounting.  Revenues for
equipment sales, subcontractor services and other non-service
revenues are recognized when billed.

Income Taxes

No provision for federal or state income taxes is recorded in
these financial statements as such tax liabilities accrue to the
individual partners.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company considers the carrying values of its financial
instruments, consisting primarily of accounts receivable,
accounts payable and notes payable, to approximate their
respective fair values at December 31, 1996 and 1995.

Reclassification

Certain amounts in the December 31, 1995, financial statements
have been reclassified to conform to the method of presentation
adopted for 1996.

3.     Accounts Receivable and Concentration of Credit Risk

Accounts receivable as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, includes
$1,056,353 and $230,925, respectively, of subcontracting and
other costs to be billed to clients.

At December 31, 1995, $67,087 of capital contributions receivable
from partners were included in accounts receivable.  These
amounts were paid in February and March 1996.

The Partnership has three clients which comprise 94% and 97% of
CSM's revenues for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.  Such companies accounted for 73% and 94% of the
Partnership's accounts receivable balances at December 31, 1996
and 1995, respectively.

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Partnership
to concentrations of credit risk consist of trade receivables.
CSM provides services to clients in the telecommunications
industry within the United States.  CSM performs ongoing credit
assessments of its clients and does not require collateral.  The
Partnership evaluates it accounts receivable on a regular basis
and records an allowance for doubtful accounts to the extent
necessary.

4.     Property and Equipment, net

Property and equipment, net consists of the following at December
31:

</TABLE>

5.     401(k) Plan

The Partnership sponsors a defined contribution plan under
Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Plan") which
covers substantially all employees.  Employees can contribute a
maximum of 20% of their salaries to the Plan, up to the federal
maximum allowable limit.  Contributions by the Partnership to the
Plan are discretionary, and CSM has made no contributions to
date.

6.     Related Party Transactions

One of the Partnership's limited partners is a subcontractor to
CSM and provides engineering services to CSM on behalf of certain
clients.  For the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995,
payments to this limited partner for subcontracting services
amounted to $361,802 and $1,633,756, respectively.  Included in
the balance sheets are amounts due to this partner of $139,332 at
December 31, 1996, and $559,536 at December 31, 1995.

Notes payable to partners as of December 31, 1995, amounted to
$450,000, accrued interest at 8% per annum and were unsecured.
Such notes were repaid in 1996.

In 1994 CSM incurred other indebtedness to partners. The notes
totaled $350,000, bore interest at 20% per annum, and were repaid
during the year ended December 31, 1995.  The Partnership also
borrowed a total of $150,000 during 1995 from Columbia Capital
Corporation ("CCC"), a company owned by several of the principals
of CSM's general partner and one of its limited partners.  CCC
was also paid management fees of $2,356 in 1995 for services
performed by certain of its employees.  There were no management
fees paid to CCC in 1996.

7.     Commitments

The Partnership leases its office premises and substantially all
of its office furniture.  In August 1996, the Partnership entered
into a five year lease agreement for office space the new lease
commences on or about April 1, 1997, has a 5 year renewal option
and includes a termination clause which may be exercised at the
end of the 36th month of the lease.  Minimum rental payments
increase 2% per year.

Rent expense under operating leases was $215,241 in 1996 and
$168,608 in 1995.

Future minimum rental payments under noncancelable lease
obligations, including the office lease commencing April 1, 1997,
are as follows:

Net income per unit has been calculated based on the weighed
average number of units outstanding of 136,784 for the years
ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

9.     Subsequent Event

Effective March 7, 1997, the Partnership sold its operations
(including certain of its assets and liabilities) to P-COM Field
Services, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of P-COM, Inc. ("P-
COM") for $22,500,000, with proceeds paid in the form of cash and
P-COM common stock.  Such proceeds were received by the
Partnership during March 1997, subject to certain indemnification
obligations as set forth in the Purchase Agreement filed as an
exhibit to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 21,
1997, and were paid to the partners through a special
distribution.  Management intends to liquidate the Partnership
following collection of certain outstanding receivables and the
payment of related liabilities.










                        Exhibit 7(b)(1)

ITEM 7(b)   FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS

  Effective March 7, 1997, P-COM Field Services, Inc., a Delaware

the three month period ended March 31, 1997 include the results
of operations of CSM for the period from the date of the
acquisition (March 7, 1997) through March 31, 1997.  The
unaudited pro forma combined condensed statement of operations
for the three months ended March 31, 1997 combines the results of
operations of P-COM as reported in its Form 10-Q with the results
of operations of CSM for the period from January 1, 1997 through
the day prior to the acquisition.
