of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly EMCEE
Broadcast Products, Inc. and Subsidiaries' financial position, and the
results of their operations and changes in cash flow for the periods
presented.
   
2. The results of operations for the three month and nine month periods
ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year.
    
3. At December 31, 1997, cash equivalents included $2,245,196 invested in
a money market portfolio.
    
4. INVENTORIES consisted of the following:
     
          
                           December 31,1997      March 31, 1997

Inventories are stated at the lower of standard cost, which approximates
current actual cost (on a first-in, first-out basis) or market (net
realizable value).
                                
5. EARNINGS PER SHARE.  Primary earnings per common and common share
equivalent are computed using the weighted average number of shares
outstanding adjusted for the incremental shares attributed to
outstanding options to purchase common stock, if dilutive.  The
outstanding stock options for the periods presented are not dilutive.
                                
6.  OTHER ASSETS for March 31, 1997 include the balance of stock received
in exchange for an account receivable.  In June, 1997 this investment
was sold for a net profit of $277,324.  The remainder of other assets
of $1,712 are organizational costs of subsidiaries.
                                
7.  During fiscal 1992, a rural cellular license was sold for $3,100,000. 
The initial payment was $845,000, net of closing costs of $155,000 with
the balance plus interest at seven (7%) percent payable December 16,
1996. An agreement between the parties was executed at the end of March
1997 in which the Company received a payment in April 1997 of $2,500,000
and a note of $500,000 to be paid if the license is resold or a material
change occurs in the ownership of the license holder.  The remaining
$500,000 receivable is recorded on the balance sheet and is fully
reserved because there is no reasonable basis to evaluate the likelihood
of collection.
                                
8.  For the three months and nine months ended December 31, 1997, the
federal tax provision is less than the federal statutory because the
Company has reduced its estimated federal tax rate used for interim
reporting to recognize the benefit of its Foreign Sales Corporation
(FSC) subsidiary.
<PAGE>                                
9.  On May 28, 1996, the Corporation purchased 200,000 shares of EMCEE
Broadcast Products, Inc. stock from the estate of a former director. 
This stock has been recorded as Treasury Stock.  In consideration of
this Agreement, the Company has issued a Non-Negotiable, Non-
Transferable Stock Warrant to the beneficiary of the estate which
expires on May 22, 2001, for 200,000 shares of the Company stock at an
exercise price of $9.46875 per share.  In the nine month period ended
December 31, 1997, the Corporation purchased 94,400 shares of EMCEE
stock on the open market ranging in price (including fees) of $2.9975
to $4.061.  As of February 9, 1998, an additional 10,100 shares were
purchased at an average price of $3.05 per share.

                 EMCEE BROADCAST PRODUCTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

                  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
          OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                   
Sales for the quarter ended December 31, 1997 totaled $2,794,000 or 7.5%
less than the like quarter one year ago.  Sales for the nine months ending
December 31, 1997 equaled $6,863,000 or 35.5% less than the nine months
ended December 31, 1996.
    
The decrease in shipments year-to-date compared to the previous year is the
result of less demand in the domestic market as the larger wireless cable
operators analyze alternatives in constructing systems for video digital
compression, data transmission or for the use of the wireless cable spectrum
for telephony.  
    
Domestic shipments accounted for $767,000 for the quarter and $2,495,000
for the nine months ended December 31, 1997 compared to $1,287,000 and
$4,905,000 for the same periods one year ago.  The Registrant believes that
when the technology of digital compression is tested and proven viable, the
demand will increase for the Company's product in North America sometime
within 1998.
    
The Registrant further believes that the existing analog product
manufactured by the Company will continue to be in demand worldwide for the
next four to five years.  However, the financial problems in the Far East
are expected to have a detrimental effect on sales;  but as to the extent
and duration of this effect, management can not predict with certainty.  
  
The high percent of export sales (73%) for the quarter ended December
31,1997, for which prices are generally higher, and the additional volume
(compared to the prior two quarters), increased gross profit to $1,035,000
or 37% of net sales and increased gross profit to $2,352,000 (34% of net
sales) for the nine months ended December 31, 1997, compared to gross profit
of $1,193,000 (39.5% of net sales) and $4,141,000 (38.9% of net sales) for
the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 1996.  The higher gross
profit margin and higher margin as a percent to net sales for the nine
months ended December 31, 1996 were due, in addition to the higher volume,
to lower content of original equipment manufactured by others, which totaled
20% for the quarter ended December 31, 1996 compared to 23% for the other
periods under discussion.  Margins are lower for O.E.M. than for equipment
manufactured by the Company.
    
Total Operating expenses amounted to $695,000 for the quarter ended December
31, 1997 and $2,219,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 1997 compared
to $839,000 and $2,512,000 for the quarter and year-to-dates, respectively,
for the same periods one year ago.  Selling expense of $333,000 for the
quarter ended December 31, 1997 decreased almost 15% from the quarter ended
December 31, 1996 while the year to date amount of $1,106,000 deceased 8.5%
from the nine month period one year ago.  Reductions occurred in
commissions, which are sales volume related.  Management also reduced salary

<PAGE>
and salary related expense and travel expense.  Increase in expense for the
nine months ended December 31, 1997 did occur in shows and conventions and
advertising as most of the costs were related or were connected to the
previous fiscal year.  Also, selling expense related to foreign sales
(including the aforementioned shows and advertising) did increase
approximately 10% as management believes that near-term sales increases will
come from offshore.
    
General and administrative expense decreased 7% for the quarter and 14%
year-to-date ending December 31, 1997 compared to the quarter and year-to-
date ended one year ago.  The majority of the decrease was in salary and
salary related expense.  Additional reductions occurred in legal costs and
public relations while the Board of Directors expense increased due to an
additional meeting in the second quarter of the current fiscal year.
 
Research and development expense totaled $265,000 for the nine months ended
December 31, 1997 or $57,000 less than the amount for the first nine months
ended December 31, 1996.  Both periods included credits for non-recurring
engineering billed to a customer; $20,000 for the current fiscal year and
$61,000 for the prior year.  The Company is committed to increasing its
research and development expense in order to maintain technology in the
expanding multichannel multipoint distribution service (MMDS) industry for
television and Internet transmitters.
  
Income from operations netted $340,000 for the quarter ended December 31,
1997 compared to $354,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 1996 and turned
a loss from operations sustained for the six months ended September 30,
1997, to an income from operations for the nine months ending December 31,
1997 of $133,000.  The latter amount compares to income from operations of
$1,629,000 for the first three quarters of fiscal 1997.
  
Aided by investments in U.S. Treasury bills and a money market account,
interest income of $63,000 for the quarter ending December 31, 1997 and
$186,000 for the first nine months ending December 31, 1997 exceeded
interest expense of $21,000 and $65,000 for the same periods.  A gain on the
sale of stock of an investment held by the Registrant of $277,000 and net
other income of $18,000 due primarily to short-term rentals of equipment,
coupled with the abovementioned interest income in excess of interest
expense, resulted in other income (net) for the nine months ended December
31, 1997 of $416,000, compared to $133,000 for the same period one year ago,
and which increased net income before income taxes to $549,000, compared to
$1,762,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 1997.  Net income before
federal income taxes for the quarter of $387,000 exceeded the amount for the
quarter one year ago of $374,000.
    
Federal income tax provisions for the third quarter and nine months ending
December 31, 1997 of $83,000 and $90,000, respectively, reduced net income
to $304,000 ($0.07 per share) for the quarter and $459,000 ($0.11 per share)
for the first nine months of fiscal 1998, compared to $283,000 ($0.07 per
share) and $1,326,000 ($0.31 per share) for the corresponding periods last
year.
    
The federal tax provision for the above periods are less than statutory as
the Company has reduced the estimated federal tax rate to recognize the
benefit of its foreign sales corporation (FSC) subsidiary.  There are no
state tax liabilities for the reported periods since all profitable
companies in the consolidated group are domiciled in states which do not
impose income taxes.
    
In April of the current fiscal year, the Registrant collected $2,500,000 for
a note receivable and interest.  This amount, along with the available cash
balance, has been invested in U.S. Treasury Bills of $2,255,000 and a money
market account of $2,537,000 as of December 31, 1997 compared to total cash
and investment of $2,360,000 as of March 31, 1997.


<PAGE>  
Accounts receivable increased from $933,000 as of March 31, 1997 to
$1,602,000 as of December 31, 1997.  This increase is due to the increase
in sales volume for the quarter ended December 31, 1997 compared to the
fourth quarter of fiscal 1997 and a shipment to Brazil of $319,000 financed
for one year.  Also included in this balance at December 31, 1997 is an
amount of $100,000 advanced through a subsidiary which has been
subsequently transferred to an investment. (See paragraph below.)
    
Accounts and note receivable of approximately $90,000 was written-off
against the reserve in the first nine months ended December 31, 1997.  The
balance of $50,000 for reserve for bad debts is believed to be adequate by
the Registrant as of December 31, 1997.  Deposits on orders from customers
increased from  $121,000 as of March 31, 1997 to $354,000 as of December 31,
1997, indicating that order demand is stronger.
  
Inventories were reduced by $300,000 as of December 31, 1997 compared to
March 31, 1997, again, due to the increase in sales.
 
Prepaid expense and deferred taxes totaled $191,000 as of December 31, 1997
compared to $379,000 as of March 31, 1997.  Approximately one-half of this
decrease was due to a temporary timing difference in the federal income
tax calculations.  The remaining reduction of approximately $90,000 was 
primarily for write-offs of prepaid expenses including costs associated 
with the National Association of Broadcasters Show of April, 1997, 
expensed in the present fiscal year.
    
Conversely, accrued federal income taxes decreased from $554,000 as of March
31, 1997 to $119,000 as of December 31, 1997 due to the timing difference
mentioned in the above paragraph and quarterly payments of $490,000 made in
this fiscal year, less accruals for the current fiscal year liability.
 
Expenditures for capital equipment totaled $23,000 for the nine month period
ended December 31, 1997.  As depreciation for the same period equaled
$203,000, net property, plant and equipment decreased $180,000 at December
31, 1997 compared to March 31, 1997.  In addition, fixed assets with
original value of $48,000 which were fully depreciated were deleted.
 
Other assets, which totaled $108,000 as of March 31, 1997 included an
investment in a wireless cable operator at a cost of $106,000 which was sold
in the first quarter of the present fiscal year.  The remaining balance
consists of organizational costs of subsidiaries.
  
As part of the Registrant's efforts to expand through acquisitions and
investments, the Company has committed to an investment in a new enterprise
that will invest in Internet operating companies.  The arrangement in which
the investment will be less than $500,000, will increase the Registrant's
visibility and provide experience in the operation of this new and growing
market.
    
The Note Receivable of $500,000 shown on the balance sheet for both periods
under review represents the balance owed the Company in the sale of a
cellular license in which $2,500,000 was received in April of 1997.  As 
there is no reasonable basis to evaluate the likelihood of collection,
the amount is fully reserved.
    
The long-term debt-current portion, increased from $108,000 as of March 31,
1997 to $125,000 as of December 31, 1997 to recognize additional borrowing
in April of 1997 of $70,000 and maturity changes at December 31, 1997. 
Long-term debt balances decreased $37,000 during the same period due to
principal payments, the additional borrowing, and maturity changes.
 
The accounts payable balance of $356,000 as of December 31, 1997 was almost
the same as the balances of $355,000 as of March 31, 1997. 
<PAGE> 
Accrued expenses totaled $295,000 as of December 31, 1997 compared to
$337,000 as of March 31, 1997.  The difference is attributed to timing
differences in payroll, payroll taxes and other accruals.
  
As of March 31, 1997, there were 48,050 shares of stock options exercisable
at $3.4375 per share.  There were no options exercised in the nine months
ended December 31, 1997.  The Company did award an employee 18,560 shares
of Company stock.  The stock was issued primarily from stock held as
Treasury stock.  Also, 1,523 shares of stock was purchased from a former
employee under the provisions of the employees stock option plan.
  
The Registrant, through a subsidiary, purchased a total of 94,400 shares of
Company stock on the open market at a total cost of $306,000.  Subsequent
to December 31, 1997, and up to the date of this report, an additional
10,100 shares have been purchased at a total cost of $30,800. Management has
been authorized to continue to purchase additional stock on the open market
at management's discretion.

The Registrant believes that its existing working capital coupled with cash
flows from operations will be sufficient to fund working capital and debt
payment requirements for fiscal 1998.
 
The backlog as of December 31, 1997 totaled $1,886,000, all of which is
expected to ship by March 31, 1998.  Orders for the nine months ended
December 31, 1997 totaled $8,550,000.
 
Total employment, which includes 2 part-time employees, totaled 67 as of
December 31, 1997 compared to 69 as of March 31, 1997.
  
As indicated by the last two quarters, the Registrant believes that the
market for MMDS  transmitters will continue to grow especially in the
digital compression segment and transmitters for Internet use. The
Registrant is optimistic that the new technology that the Company has been
testing will be received by the industry within 1998 calendar year.

cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward looking
statements.  Such factors include, but are not limited to, changes
(legislative, regulatory and otherwise) in the MMDS or LPTV industry, demand
for the Company's products (both domestically and internationally), the
development of competitive products, competitive pricing, the timing of

                   PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
    
In prior years an individual who was an officer, director and shareholder
and the Company were named as defendants in various lawsuits instituted by
certain shareholders based on incidents alleged to have occurred in the
early-to-mid 1980's.  Of these lawsuits, all were either settled or were
dismissed with prejudice and the appeal periods have expired.
    
On July 7, 1995, one of the prior litigants initiated another claim against
the Company and another individual who is a shareholder seeking actual
damages of $700,000.  In September 1995, the presiding judge in the Circuit


<PAGE>
Court of Cook County, Illinois ruled in favor of the Company to dismiss
plaintiff's complaint with prejudice. It is unknown at this time whether an
appeal will be taken.
    
On January 16, 1997 the Registrant initiated a claim against a partnership
and an individual seeking judgment in the principal amount of $2,100,000
plus interest and attorneys fees.  On March 27, 1997, the parties agreed to
a settlement of $2,500,000 to be paid (and which was paid) on April 3, 1997
and an additional $500,000 to be paid to the Company upon the occurrence of
certain events, including a sale or material change in ownership of the
obligor.
