ITEM 12. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Tejas Securities Group, Inc., of which Robert A. Shuey III was formerly Managing
Director of Capital Markets, was the lead underwriter in connection with the
Company's initial public offering in October 1997 of 1,380,000 units (including
units issued upon exercise of the underwriters' overallotment option), each unit
consisting of one share of Common Stock and one warrant to purchase a share of
Common Stock.  The units were issued at a price to the public of $7.50.  The
underwriters received underwriting discounts and commissions of $.75 per unit.
In addition, the Company paid the managing underwriters, including Tejas
Securities Group, Inc., a 2% nonaccountable expense allowance and issued
underwriters' warrants exercisable for four years to purchase 120,000 units at
120% of the public offering price.

On October 28, 1997, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding
stock of WTC Holdings Inc. ("WTC"), which holds all of the issued and
outstanding shares of Western Telecom Construction Ltd., in exchange for 835,000
shares of the Company's Common Stock. WTC was owned by Peter Jeffrey.

Approximately $555,437 of the proceeds of the Company's initial public offering
were used to repay amounts due to Calvin J. Payne and his spouse, a corporation
controlled by S. Roy Jeffrey and another individual. The amount due to Mr. Payne
and his spouse arose when amounts were distributed to them by the Company for
tax planning purposes and then loaned back to the Company in 1993. The amount
due to the corporation controlled by S. Roy Jeffrey was loaned to the Company to
assist the Company in purchasing land in 1993.

Prior to the Company's initial public offering, the Company paid Westower
Consulting, an enterprise under control of the Company, for services provided.
Charges for these services were approximately $126,000 in Fiscal Year 1998 and
$94,000 in Fiscal Year 1997.  Amounts due to Westower Consulting were $39,000 at
February 28, 1998.  No charges were incurred for such services following the
Company's initial public offering.

During January 1998, the Company advanced $119,000 to a corporation owned by
Messrs. Calvin J. Payne, S. Roy Jeffrey, Peter Jeffrey and Peter Lucas.
Proceeds were used by the borrowing corporation to purchase facilities leased by
one of the Company's newly acquired subsidiaries.  The advances were unsecured,
bore no interest and were repaid in full in May 1998.
