     1.  CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2002, the condensed
     consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended
     June 30, 2002 and 2001 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash
     flows for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 have been prepared by
     RELM Wireless Corporation (the Company), without audit. In the opinion of
     management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments)
     necessary for a fair presentation have been made. The balance sheet at
     December 31, 2001 has been derived from the audited financial statements at
     that date.

     Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
     statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
     principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these
     condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the
     financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's December
     31, 2001 Annual Report to Stockholders. The results of operations for the
     three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily
     indicative of the operating results for a full year.

     The Company maintains its records on a calendar year basis. The Company's
     first, second, and third quarters normally end on the Friday closest to the
     last day of the last month of such quarter, which was June 28, 2002 for the
     second quarter of fiscal 2002. The quarter began on March 30, 2002.

     2. SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AND TRANSACTIONS

     PUBLIC RIGHTS OFFERING

     On March 22, 2002, the Company closed a public rights offering. The purpose
     of the offering was to provide working capital, which among other things,
     the Company believes will speed the development of the Company's new APCO
     Project 25-compliant digital products and capabilities. The securities
     offered were "units". A unit was comprised of one share of RELM common
     stock and one warrant to purchase one share of RELM common stock,
     exercisable at $1.01 per share at any time on or after February 12, 2003
     and until February 11, 2006. Units were offered initially to RELM's equity
     holders in the form of a rights offering. The "right" allowed investors in
     the offering to purchase units at a 10% discount to the market price of a
     share of common stock.

     2. SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AND TRANSACTIONS  - CONTINUED

     PUBLIC RIGHTS OFFERING-CONTINUED

     Noble International Investments, Inc. (Noble) was engaged as the standby
     underwriter for this offering. The units were offered to the public
     pursuant to a registration statement that was declared effective by the
     Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 11, 2002. In
     accordance with the terms of the offering, the units were separated on the
     closing date. The offering resulted in the sale of 2,775,000 shares of
     common stock and warrants to purchase 2,775,000 shares of common stock .
     The offering generated $1,800 in net proceeds. The warrants are currently
     quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board with the symbol RELMW. The Company's
     common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Small Cap Market under the Company's
     current symbol, RELM

     On May 17, 2002, Noble exercised its option to purchase 416,250 additional
     units at a purchase price of $0.90 per unit to cover over-allotments. The
     Company received approximately $326 in net proceeds from the purchase of
     these additional units.

     INTRODUCTION OF NEW PORTABLE TWO-WAY RADIO

     In January 2002, the Company introduced the first model of its new RP
     series of portable radios. The second model, serving a different frequency
     band, was introduced in June 2002. Both models have been type-accepted by
     the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The next model in the RP
     Series, offering expanded channels and functions, is undergoing internal
     FCC compliance testing and is expected to be available for sale in the
     third quarter 2002.

     These radios are manufactured for the Company under a previously announced
     agreement with an electronic technology and manufacturing concern. Under
     the agreement, they will manufacture for the Company, four models of VHF
     and UHF portable two-way radio transceivers, and the Company will have
     exclusive distribution rights for these products in North, Central, and
     South America. The agreement expires on September 11, 2006 and may be
     expanded to include additional products.

     LOSS ON NOTES RECEIVABLE

     During the first quarter of 2002, the Company established a $900 valuation
     reserve. This amount is equal to the total principal amount due to the
     Company from Fort Orange Paper Company, Inc. (Fort Orange), the purchaser
     of its former paper-

     manufacturing subsidiary. In April, the Company learned that Fort Orange
     had ceased operations. Fort Orange owes the Company $900 plus accrued
     interest under the terms of two secured promissory notes and has defaulted
     on its obligations to make principal and interest payments. The Company's
     security interest is subordinated to the security interest granted to the
     purchaser's senior lender.

     In connection with the sale of the subsidiary in 1997, the Company took
     back a secured promissory note from the purchaser in the initial aggregate
     principal amount of $2,400. In December 2000, the terms of the original
     promissory note were modified and the Company received a principal payment
     of $700 plus accrued interest of approximately $166. After this payment,
     the remaining principal amount due on the original note was $900. Also, as
     part of the modification agreement, the original note was replaced by two
     secured promissory notes, one in the principal amount of $600 and the other
     in the principal amount of $300. The $600 note is payable in ten annual
     installments starting on April 2, 2002. The $300 note is payable in five
     annual installments starting on January 1, 2003. Interest on both notes is
     accrued at 2.75% over the prime rate and is payable, in the case of the
     $600 note, in annual installments, and, in the case of the $300 note, in
     semi-annual installments. The $600 note is subject to a standby creditor's
     agreement under which principal and interest payments on the note are
     contingent upon the purchaser achieving a certain debt service coverage
     ratio and the absence of any uncured defaults on other loans or agreements
     of the purchaser. As security for both notes, the purchaser has granted to
     the Company a lien and security interest in certain collateral. The
     Company's security interest, however, is subordinated to the security
     interest granted to the purchaser's senior lender. In addition, the Company
     is subject to a standstill agreement with the senior lender. A principal of
     the purchaser has guaranteed the prompt and complete payment of both notes
     when due. Both notes are subject to forbearance fee payment agreements with
     both the purchaser and the guarantor under which additional amounts may be
     payable to the Company if there is a merger, sale or change of control of
     the purchaser and if the notes are not paid in full by certain dates.

     It is the Company's understanding that Fort Orange is actively seeking to
     sell its assets. A party interested in purchasing the Fort Orange assets
     has contacted the Company to discuss a settlement of the note receivable.
     No definitive agreement has been reached.

     2. SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AND TRANSACTIONS  -  CONTINUED

     LOSS ON NOTES RECEIVABLE - CONTINUED

     The Company believes that the value of Fort Orange's business and its
     assets is uncertain due to the cessation of operations, and the current
     business conditions in this industry. Therefore, the amount, if any, that
     the Company may recover in the event of a sale, or otherwise, cannot yet be
     determined. As a result of these circumstances, the Company established a
     valuation reserve for the entire principal amount ($900) of the two
     promissory notes in the first quarter 2002.

     3. ALLOWANCE ON TRADE RECEIVABLES

     The allowance for collection losses on trade receivables was $0.1 million
     on gross trade receivables of $2.6 million at June 30, 2002. This allowance
     is used to state trade receivables at a net realizable value or the amount
     that we estimate will be collected on our gross receivables as of June 30,
     2002. Because the amount that we will actually collect on the receivables
     outstanding as of June 30, 2002 cannot be known with certainty as of this
     document's effective date, we rely on prior experience. Our historical
     collection losses have been typically infrequent with write-offs of trade
     receivables being less than 1% of sales. Our policy is to maintain a
     general allowance of approximately 2 to 5% of a gross trade receivable
     balance in order to allow for future collection losses that arise from
     customer accounts that do not indicate the inability to pay but turn out to
     have such an inability. Currently our allowance on trade receivables is
     3.82% of gross trade receivables. We also maintain a specific allowance for
     customer accounts that we know may not be collectible due to various
     reasons such as bankruptcy and other customer liquidity issues. We analyze
     our trade receivable portfolio based on the age of each customer's invoice.
     In this way, we can identify those accounts that are more likely than not
     to have collection problems. We then reserve a portion or all of the
     customer's balance.

     4. INVENTORIES

     The components of inventory, net of reserves totaling $2,323 and $2,319 at
     June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively, consist of the
     following:

                                          ======      ======

     The reserve for excess or obsolete inventory was $2.3 million at June 30,
     2002. The reserve for excess or obsolete inventory is used to state our
     inventories at the lower of cost or market. Because the amount of
     inventoriable costs that we will actually recoup through sales of our
     inventory as of June 30, 2002 can not be known with certainty as of this
     document's effective date, we rely on past sales experience and future
     sales forecasts. In analyzing our inventory levels, we classify inventory
     as either no usage in the past year or usage in the past year. For
     inventory with no usage in the past year, we reserve 85% of the cost of
     this inventory, which takes into account a 15% scrap value. For inventory
     with usage in the past year, we review the average annual usage over the
     past three years, project that amount over the next seven years, and then
     reserve 25% of the excess amount (in which the excess amount equals
     inventory on hand less a seven year projected usage amount). We believe
     that 25% represents the value of excess inventory we would not be able to
     recover due to our new product introductions and other technological
     advancements.

     6. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE - CONTINUED

     A total of 2,893,884 and 2,328,384 shares related to options, warrants, and
     convertible debt are not included in the computation of loss per share for
     the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, because to do so
     would be anti-dilutive.

     7. OMPREHENSIVE LOSS

     The total comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended
     June 30, 2002 was $3 and ($1,013), respectively, compared to $145 and
     ($142) for the same periods in the previous year.

     8. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     In June 2001, the FASB issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards
     (SFAS) No. 141, Business Combinations, and No. 142, Goodwill and Other
     Intangible Assets. Under the new rules, goodwill and indefinite lived
     intangible assets are no longer amortized but are reviewed annually for
     impairment. Separable intangible assets that are not deemed to have an
     indefinite life will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. The
     amortization provisions of SFAS No. 142 apply to goodwill and intangible
     assets acquired after June 30, 2001. With respect to goodwill and
     intangible assets acquired prior to July 1, 2001, the Company applied the
     new accounting rules beginning January 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No.
     141 and No. 142 did not have a material impact on our Condensed
     Consolidated Financial Statements.

     9. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

     From time to time, the Company may become liable with respect to pending
     and threatened litigation, tax, environmental and other matters.

     GENERAL INSURANCE

     Under the Company's insurance programs, coverage is obtained for
     catastrophic exposures as well as those risks required to be insured by law
     or contract. It is the policy of the Company to retain a portion of certain
     expected losses related primarily to workers' compensation, physical loss
     to property, business interruption resulting from such loss and
     comprehensive general, product, and vehicle liability. Provisions for
     losses expected under these programs are recorded based upon the Company's

     estimates of the aggregate liability for claims incurred. Such estimates
     utilize certain actuarial assumptions followed in the insurance industry
     and are included in accrued expenses. The amounts accrued are included in
     accrued compensation and related taxes in the balance sheets.

     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     In 1993, a civil action was brought against the Company by a plaintiff to
     recover losses sustained on notes of a former affiliate. The plaintiff
     alleges violations of federal security and other laws by the Company in
     collateral arrangements with the former affiliate. In response, the Company
     filed a motion to dismiss the complaint in the fall of 1993, which the
     court has yet to rule. In February 1994, the plaintiff executed and
     circulated for signature, a stipulation of voluntary dismissal. After the
     stipulation was executed the plaintiff refused to file the stipulation with
     the court. Subsequently the Company and others named in the complaint filed
     a motion to enforce their agreement with the plaintiff. The court has also
     yet to rule on that motion. A pre-trial schedule set in October 2001 set
     aggressive time frames for the completion of discovery, the filing of
     dispositive motions and the filing of pre-trial statements. The Company is
     vigorously defending this matter.

     In a second related action, an adversarial action in connection with the
     bankruptcy proceedings of the former affiliate has been filed. In response
     to that complaint the Company filed a motion to dismiss for failure to
     state a cause of action. Although the motion for dismissal was filed during
     1995, the bankruptcy court has not yet ruled on the motion. The range of
     potential loss, if any, as a result of these actions cannot be presently
     determined. The Company is vigorously defending this matter.

     In February 1986, the liquidator of the former affiliate filed a complaint
     claiming intentional and negligent conduct by the Company and others named
     in the complaint caused the former affiliate to suffer millions of dollars
     of losses leading to its ultimate failure. The complaint does not specify
     damages but an unfavorable outcome could have a material adverse impact on
     the Company's financial position. The range of potential loss, if any,
     cannot be presently determined. Management, with the advice of counsel,
     believes the Company has meritorious defenses and the likelihood of an
     unfavorable outcome in each of these actions is remote.

     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS - CONTINUED

     On February 12, 1999, the Company initiated collection and legal
     proceedings in Sao Paulo, Brazil, against its Brazilian dealer, Chatral,
     for failure to pay for product shipments totaling $1,400 which has been
     fully reserved in a prior year. In April 2001, the Brazilian court ordered
     the Company to post security with the court totaling approximately $300 in
     the form of cash or a bond in order for the case to proceed. The Company
     has elected not to post security. Consequently, the case has been
     involuntarily dismissed. There has been no ruling on the merits of the
     case, and we have preserved our rights to pursue this matter in the future.

     On December 8, 1999, Chatral filed a counter claim against the Company
     alleging damages totaling $8,000 as a result of the Company's
     discontinuation of shipments to Chatral. While an unfavorable outcome could
     have a material adverse effect on the financial position of the Company,
     management, with the advice of counsel, believes the Company has
     meritorious defenses and the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is
     remote.

     Heath & Company filed a suit against RELM Wireless Corporation and RELM
     Communications, Inc. in the United States District Court for the District
     of Massachusetts in early 2001 year for breach of contract,
     misrepresentation and unfair trade practices. Pursuant to a Memorandum and
     Order dated April 24, 2001, most of Heath's claims were dismissed. The
     court ruled as a matter of law that a fact finder must determine whether
     RELM Communications withheld information it knew to be essential to the
     Plaintiff and whether it did so in a bad faith attempt to withdraw from a
     brokerage agreement. On March 21, 2002, the parties settled the matter for
     payment to Heath of $33.

     On December 20, 2000, a products liability lawsuit was filed in Los Angeles
     Superior Court in Los Angeles, California. Although the Company was not
     named in the suit, one of the Defendants, C.P. Allstar Corporation had
     purchased all or substantially all of the assets of a RELM affiliate. As
     part of the asset sale, the asset purchase agreement contained
     indemnification provisions, which could result in liability for the
     Company. On October 23, 2001, C.P. Allstar Corporation served us with a
     claim for

     indemnification under a provision of the asset purchase agreement. In June
     2002, the Company was released from this matter by C.P. Allstar.

     On November 19, 2001, a products liability lawsuit was filed in the 353rd
     Judicial District Court of Travis County, Texas, against RELM Wireless
     Corporation and RELM Communications, Inc. C.P. Allstar Corporation is also
     a named defendant in this lawsuit. C.P. Allstar Corporation had purchased
     all or substantially all of the assets of a RELM affiliate. As part of the
     asset sale, the asset purchase agreement contained indemnification
     provisions, which could result in liability for us. The claim is being
     vigorously defended by the Company's insurer.

     10.  NASDAQ COMMUNICATION

     On May 1, 2002 the Company was notified by Nasdaq Listing Qualifications
     that for the last 30 consecutive trading days the Company's stock has
     closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued listing
     under Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4). In accordance with Marketplace Rule
     4310(c)(8)(d) the Company has 180 days, until October 28, 2002, to regain
     compliance. If at any time before October 28, 2002 the bid price of the
     Company's common stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of
     10 consecutive trading days, the Nasdaq Staff will provide written
     notification that the Company complies with the rule. Otherwise the Staff
     will provide written notification that the Company's securities will be
     delisted. At that time, the Company may appeal the staff's determination to
     a Listing Qualifications Panel.

     NET SALES

     Net sales for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2002 decreased
     by approximately $1.2 million (20.0%) and $1.2 million (11.2%),
     respectively, compared to the same period for the prior year. These
     decreases are attributed primarily to the absence of BK Radio product sales
     to the Communications Electronics Command of the U. S. Army (CECOM). During
     the year ended December 31, 2001, revenues from product shipments to CECOM
     totaled approximately $1.2 million. The contract under which those
     shipments were made expired in October 2001. CECOM solicited bids for a new
     contract in March 2002 and we submitted proposals. The evaluation of
     proposals for this solicitation is in process, but has been subjected to
     delays. Consequently, the contract has not yet been awarded. Based upon
     discussions with CECOM, we anticipate that the contract will be awarded
     prior to September 30, 2002.

     Overall, for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2002, revenues
     from BK Radio-branded products serving the government and public safety
     market segment decreased approximately $0.7 million (or 16.2%). This is
     because the decrease in revenues from CECOM was partially offset by
     increases in sales to various federal and


                                       16
<PAGE>
     NET SALES - CONTINUED

     state forest fire-fighting agencies and increased sales of our S-Series
     family of repeaters and base stations. For the quarter ended June 30, 2002,
     sales of Uniden-branded and RELM-branded products in the business and
     industrial market segment decreased approximately $0.6 million (41.6%) when
     compared to the same period of the prior year. Customer demand in this
     market segment continued to be weak, reflecting the lack of a sustained
     economic recovery. However, we did realize modest revenue increases in our
     RELM products compared to the same period last year as we continued the
     introduction of our new family of portable radios, the RP Series. The RP
     series is designed as a quality, full-featured, low-cost line to compete
     effectively in the business and industrial market. Also, we have received
     customer orders totaling approximately $1.0 million for Uniden ESAS
     (Enhanced Sub-Audible Signaling) systems, one of which is for the expansion
     of one of the initial systems installed earlier this year.

     COST OF SALES AND GROSS MARGIN

     Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended June
     30, 2002 was 68.9% compared to 71.9% for the same period in the prior year.
     For the six months ended June 30, 2002, cost of sales as a percentage of
     net sales was 70.1% compared to 72.6% for the same period in the prior
     year. The overall improvement in cost of sales and gross margins is a
     reflection of various and continuing initiatives to reduce direct product
     costs and manufacturing infrastructure costs. These initiatives, started in
     2000, have included facility and staff reductions, and leveraging strategic
     external manufacturing relationships, some of which are offshore.
     Additional initiatives designed to further reduce product costs are
     underway. We believe that, combined with new product revenues, these
     efforts will continue to yield improved cost of sales and gross margin
     performance. We anticipate that the current relationships or comparable
     alternatives will be available to the company in the future.

     SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

     Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses consist of marketing,
     sales, commissions, engineering, research and development, management
     information systems, accounting, and headquarters expenses. For the three
     months ended June 30, 2002, SG&A expenses totaled approximately $1,460,000
     (29.5% of sales) compared to $1,462,000 (23.6% of sales) for the same
     period last year. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, SG&A expenses
     totaled approximately $2,870,000 (29.6% of sales) compared to $2,850,000
     (26.1% of sales) for the same period last year.


     Research and development expenses increased as a result of the continuing
     development of our new APCO Project 25-compliant products and new ESAS
     system features and capabilities. We anticipate that the initial models of
     digital products will be introduced for sale in the fourth quarter 2002.

     SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES - CONTINUED

     increased as a result of efforts to drive additional revenues particularly
     in the business and industrial segment of the market. These increases were
     largely offset by reductions in general and administrative expenses.
     Certain information systems functions were outsourced and legal expenses
     were reduced as several pending legal matters were resolved.

     INTEREST EXPENSE

     For the three months ended June 30, 2002 interest expense totaled $111,000
     (2.2% of sales) compared to $145,000 (2.3% of sales) for the same period
     during the prior year. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30,
     2002 totaled $221,000 ( 2.3% of sales) compared to $303,000 (2.8% of sales)
     for the same period during the prior year. We have generated working
     capital through expense reductions, a fast collection cycle, and reduced
     inventory, enabling us to reduce the amount outstanding on our revolving
     line of credit. Additionally, we satisfied capital lease obligations
     associated with certain computer equipment.

     LOSS ON NOTES RECEIVABLE

     The loss on notes receivable is discussed under the section titled
     "Recent Events" .

     INCOME TAXES

     No income tax provision was provided for the three or six months ended June
     30, 2002 or 2001. We have net operating loss carryforward benefits totaling
     approximately $29 million at June 30, 2002. We have evaluated our tax
     position in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 109, Accounting
     for Income Taxes, and do not believe that we have met the
     more-likely-than-not criteria for recognizing a deferred tax asset. As a
     result, we have provided valuation allowances against our net deferred tax
     assets.

     RECENT EVENTS

     PUBLIC RIGHTS OFFERING

     On March 22, 2002, we closed a public rights offering. The purpose of the
     offering was to provide working capital, which among other things, will
     speed the development of our new APCO Project 25-compliant digital products
     and capabilities. The securities offered were "units". A unit was comprised
     of one share of RELM common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of
     RELM common stock for $1.01 per share. The warrants may be exercised at any
     time on or after February 12, 2003 and the warrants expire on February 11,
     2006. Units were offered initially to RELM's equity holders in the form of
     a rights offering. The "right" allowed investors in the


                                       18
<PAGE>

     PUBLIC RIGHTS OFFERING - CONTINUED

     offering to purchase units at a 10% discount to the market price of a share
     of common stock. We believe that a rights offering provided several
     advantages over a traditional public offering. It allowed us to offer the
     units to our current equity holders who already have some knowledge of our
     business, and it provided them with the opportunity to maintain their
     fully-diluted pro-rata ownership in the company. Additionally, the warrant
     component gave investors the opportunity to buy our shares in the future at
     a fixed price. Noble International Investments, Inc. (Noble) was engaged as
     the standby underwriter for this offering. The units were offered to the
     public pursuant to a registration statement that was declared effective by
     the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 11, 2002. In
     accordance with the terms of the offering, the units were separated on the
     closing date. The offering resulted in the sale of 2,775,000 shares of
     common stock and warrants to purchase 2,775,000 shares of common stock. The
     offering generated $1.8 million in net proceeds. The warrants are currently
     quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board with the symbol RELMW. The Company's
     common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Small Cap Market under our current
     symbol, RELM.

     On May 17, 2002, Noble exercised its option to purchase 416,250 additional
     units at a purchase price of $0.90 per unit to cover over-allotments. We
     received approximately $326,000 in net proceeds from the purchase of these
     additional units.

     LOSS ON NOTES RECEIVABLE

     During the first quarter of 2002, we established a $900,000 valuation
     reserve. The reserve equals the total principal amount due to us from Fort
     Orange Paper Company, Inc. (Fort Orange), the purchaser of our former
     paper-manufacturing subsidiary. In April, we learned that Fort Orange had
     ceased operations. Fort Orange owes us $900,000 plus accrued interest under
     the terms of two secured promissory notes and has defaulted on its
     obligations to make principal and interest payments. Our security interest
     is subordinated to the security interest granted to the purchaser's senior
     lender. In connection with the sale of the subsidiary in 1997, we took back
     a secured promissory note from the purchaser in the initial aggregate
     principal amount of $2,400,000. In December 2000, the terms of the original
     promissory note were modified and we received a principal payment of
     $700,000 plus accrued interest of approximately $166,000. After this
     payment, the remaining principal amount due on the original note was
     $900,000. Also, as part of the modification agreement, the original note
     was replaced by two secured promissory notes, one in the principal amount
     of $600,000 and the other in the principal amount of $300,000. The $600,000
     note is payable in ten annual installments starting on April 2, 2002. The
     $300,000 note is payable in five annual installments starting on January 1,
     2003. Interest on both notes is accrued at 2.75% over the prime rate and is
     payable, in the case of the $600,000 note, in annual installments, and, in
     the case of the $300,000 note, in semi-annual installments. The $600,000
     note is subject to a standby creditor's


                                       19
<PAGE>

     LOSS ON NOTES RECEIVABLE - CONTINUED

     agreement under which principal and interest payments on the note are
     contingent upon the purchaser achieving a certain debt service coverage
     ratio and the absence of any uncured defaults on other loans or agreements
     of the purchaser. As security for both notes, the purchaser has granted to
     us a lien and security interest in certain collateral. Our security
     interest, however, is subordinated to the security interest granted to the
     purchaser's senior lender. In addition, we are subject to a standstill
     agreement with the senior lender. A principal of the purchaser has
     guaranteed the prompt and complete payment of both notes when due. Both
     notes are subject to forbearance fee payment agreements with both the
     purchaser and the guarantor under which additional amounts may be payable
     to us if there is a merger, sale or change of control of the purchaser and
     if the notes are not paid in full by certain dates.

     It is our understanding that Fort Orange is actively seeking to sell its
     assets. A party interested in purchasing the Fort Orange assets has
     contacted us to discuss a settlement of the note receivable. No definitive
     agreement has been reached.

     We believe that the value of the business and its assets is uncertain due
     to the cessation of operations, and the current business conditions in this
     industry. Therefore, the amount, if any, that we may recover in the event
     of a sale, or otherwise, cannot yet be precisely determined. As a result of
     these circumstances, we established a valuation reserve for the entire
     principal amount ($900,000) of the two promissory notes in the first
     quarter 2002. With the assistance of counsel we are taking all prudent
     steps to maximize the possibility for recovery.

     The Fort Orange business and the associated promissory notes are legacies
     from before 1997, and not at all related to land mobile radio (LMR)
     operations, which have been our focus for the past several years. We have
     excluded the subject promissory notes from our cash flow projections and
     operating plans since 2000. Although the valuation reserve impacted
     earnings, we anticipate no impact on the execution of our core LMR business
     plan objectives, including the completion and introduction of our digital
     products, which are proceeding on-schedule.

     SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS
     ---------------------

     Sales to the United States government represented approximately 53.07% and
     42.18% of our total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30,
     2002, respectively, compared to 56.80% and 50.4% for the prior year. These
     sales were primarily to the United States Forest Service (USFS). The
     decline in the percentage of total revenues attributable to sales to the
     United States government is primarily due to the expiration of our CECOM
     contract described below.

     In 2001, the USFS solicited bids for a new contract and we were awarded the
     contract for portable radios, base stations, and repeaters. The contract is
     for a period of one year


                                       20

     SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS - CONTINUED
     ---------------------------------

     with options for three additional years, and does not specify a minimum
     purchase. We were not awarded the contract for mobile radios. However,
     these units are available on the Company's General Service Administration
     (GSA) schedule.

     In 1996, we were awarded a contract to provide land mobile radios to CECOM.
     This contract was for a term of five years with no specified minimum
     purchase requirement. The contract expired in 2001. CECOM solicited bids
     for a new contract in March 2002 and we submitted proposals. The evaluation
     of proposals for this solicitation is in process, but has been subjected to
     delays. Consequently, the contract has not yet been awarded. Based upon
     discussions with CECOM, we anticipate that the contract will be awarded
     prior to September 30, 2002.

     INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES
     -----------------------------

     Inflation and changing prices for the three and six months ended June 30,
     2002 and 2001 have contributed to increases in wages, facilities, and raw
     material costs. Effects of these inflationary effects were partially offset
     by increased prices to customers. We believe that we will be able to pass
     on most of our future inflationary increases to our customers.

     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
     -------------------------------

     As of June 30, 2002, we had working capital of $10.3 million, including
     $2.1 million of cash and cash equivalents, compared with $9.3 million as of
     December 31, 2001. This increase was primarily the result of the recently
     closed public rights offering. Reductions in operating expenses and
     inventory also contributed to the increase.

     We have a $7 million revolving line of credit. As of June 30, 2002, the
     formula under the terms of the agreement supported a borrowing base
     totaling approximately $4.0 million, of which approximately $1.3 million
     was available.

     Capital expenditures for property and equipment for the six months ended
     June 30, 2002 were approximately $50,000 compared to $53,000 for the same
     period in 2001. Capital expenditures for the remainder of the year are
     anticipated to increase as we intensify the development of our APCO Project
     25-compliant digital products.

     On March 22, 2002, we closed a public rights offering. The purpose of the
     offering was to provide working capital which, among other things, will be
     used to fund the development of our new APCO Project 25-compliant digital
     products and capabilities.

     ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES OF MARKET RISK
     ------   -------------------------------------------------------

     The Company utilizes a variable-rate line of credit. The Company does not
     expect changes in interest rates to have a material effect on income or
     cash flows in fiscal year 2002, although there can be no assurance that
     interest rates will not significantly change.

     CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
     ----------------------------

     In response to the SEC's financial reporting release, FR-60, Cautionary
     Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies, we have
     selected our more subjective accounting estimation processes for purposes
     of explaining the methodology used in calculating the estimate in addition
     to the inherent uncertainties pertaining to the estimate and the possible
     effects on the Company's financial conditions. The two accounting
     estimation processes discussed below are the allowance for collection on
     trade receivables and reserves for excess or obsolete inventory. These
     estimation processes affect current assets and are therefore critical in
     assessing the financial and operating status of the Company. These
     estimates involve certain assumption that if incorrect could create an
     adverse impact on the Company's operations and financial position.

     The allowance for collection losses on trade receivables was $0.1 million
     on gross trade receivables of $2.6 million at June 30, 2002. This allowance
     is used to state trade receivables at a net realizable value or the amount
     that we estimate will be collected on our gross receivables as of June 30,
     2002. Because the amount that we will actually collect on the receivables
     outstanding as of June 30, 2002 cannot be known with certainty as of this
     document's effective date, we rely on prior experience. Our historical
     collection losses have been typically infrequent with write-offs of trade
     receivables being less than 1% of sales. Our policy is to maintain a
     general allowance of approximately 2 to 5% of a gross trade receivable
     balance in order to allow for future collection losses that arise from
     customer accounts that do not indicate the inability to pay but turn out to
     have such an inability. Currently our allowance on trade receivables is
     3.82% of gross trade receivables. We also maintain a specific allowance for
     customer accounts that we know may not be collectible due to various
     reasons such as bankruptcy and other customer liquidity issues. We analyze
     our trade receivable portfolio based on the age of each customer's invoice.
     In this way, we can identify those accounts that are more likely than not
     to have collection problems. We then reserve a portion or all of the
     customer's balance.

     The reserve for excess or obsolete inventory was $2.3 million at June 30,
     2002. The reserve for excess or obsolete inventory is used to state our
     inventories at the lower of cost or market. Because the amount of
     inventoriable costs that we will actually recoup through sales of our
     inventory as of June 30, 2002 can not be known with certainty as


                                       23
<PAGE>

     CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
     ----------------------------------------

     of this document's effective date, we rely on past sales experience and
     future sales forecasts. In analyzing our inventory levels, we classify
     inventory as either no usage in the past year or usage in the past year.
     For inventory with no usage in the past year, we reserve 85% of the cost of
     this inventory, which takes into account a 15% scrap value. For inventory
     with usage in the past year, we review the average annual usage over the
     past three years, project that amount over the next seven years, and then
     reserve 25% of the excess amount (in which the excess amount equals
     inventory on hand less a seven year projected usage amount). We believe
     that 25% represents the value of excess inventory we would not be able to
     recover due to our new product introductions and other technological
     advancements.
