     Future maturities of the above debt obligations at April 30, 2000, are
     $2,394,000, $1,651,000, and $12,023,000 for the years ending April 30,
     2001 through 2002, respectively.

     At April 30, 2000, the Company had a $33.9 million financing package which
     consisted of $7.4 million in term loans together with a $26.5 million
     revolving credit line. The revolving credit line provides for borrowings up
     to $26.5 million based on varying percentages of qualifying categories of
     receivables and inventories. Borrowing against inventories is limited to
     $13 million in total. At April 30, 2000, the Company had $3.3 million
     available under the revolving credit line.

     During March 2000, the Company's financing package was amended. This
     amendment extended the term of the agreement from December 31, 2000 to
     December 31, 2002 and includes a renewal option through December 31, 2003
     assuming neither party terminates. Significant provisions of the amendment
     include changes in certain financial covenants and the lowering of the
     interest rate on the revolving credit line and term loan from prime plus
     1.5% to prime plus .5%.

     The terms of the foregoing agreement include a commitment fee based on
     the unused portion of the bank credit line in lieu of compensating
     balances.

     The agreement requires, among other things, that the Company maintain a
     minimum tangible net worth, limits the ratio of total liabilities to
     tangible net worth and requires the Company to maintain a minimum fixed
     charge ratio. Additionally, the agreement limits the amount of operating
     leases, capital expenditures and capital leases. Violation of any of these
     provisions, except for the fixed charge ratio, would constitute an event of
     default which, if not cured, would empower the lender to declare all
     amounts immediately payable. Violation of the fixed charge ratio results in
     an increase in the interest rate on the revolving credit line and term loan
     of .5%. The agreement also contains a provision that in the event of a
     defined change of ownership, the agreement may be terminated. The company
     was in compliance with all debt covenants at April 30, 2000.

     The Company's indebtedness is collateralized by substantially all of the
     Company's assets.

(4)  CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS

     During the nine months ended April 30, 2000, and April 30, 1999, the
     Company paid interest of approximately $1,484,000 and $2,297,000,
     respectively.

(5)  SEVERANCE AND MERGER COSTS

     During the nine months ended April 30, 2000, the Company recognized
     $1,906,000 in severance costs primarily related to transferring certain
     production related jobs to the Company's Mexico manufacturing facility.
     Severance costs for all identified employees were fully accrued as of
     January 31, 2000. For the same period in fiscal 1999, the Company
     recognized $688,000 in severance costs, $598,000 of which was related to
     the Mexico move and $90,000 of which was related to cost reduction efforts
     via headcount elimination during the first quarter of fiscal 1999. The
     total number of employees affected to date was 161.

     For the nine months ended April 30, 2000 and April 30, 1999, the Company
     incurred $295,000 and $294,000, respectively, in costs associated with its

(7)  MERGER WITH ORBITAL SCIENCES CORPORATION

     On December 27, 1999 the Company terminated its Agreement and Plan of
     Merger with Orbital Sciences Corporation ("Orbital") when Orbital was

     merger been consummated, Orbital would have purchased all of the
     outstanding common stock of the Company at $7.30 per share.

Part I, Item 2

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

Results of Operations
---------------------

For the three months ended April 30, 2000, sonar and combination sonar/GPS
navigation sales decreased 4.8% as compared to the same period last year. Sonar
and combination sonar/GPS navigation unit sales decreased 5.7% year over year
while stand-alone GPS navigation sales decreased 61.9% from last year due
primarily to the discontinuance of certain non-mapping portable GPS navigation
units. Total stand-alone GPS navigation unit sales decreased 64.4% year over
year.

Net sales decreased in total by 22.2% for the three months ended April 30, 2000
as compared to the same period last year. Total unit sales decreased by
approximately 24,300 units (16.6%).

For the nine months ended April 30, 2000, sonar and combination sonar/GPS
navigation sales increased 3.5% as compared to the same period last year; unit
sales increased 4.1% year over year. Stand-alone GPS navigation sales decreased
56.8% from last year due primarily to the discontinuance of certain non-mapping
portable GPS navigation units. Total stand-alone GPS navigation unit sales
decreased 62.2% year over year.

Net sales decreased in total by 15.9% for the nine months ended April 30, 2000
as compared to the same period last year. Total unit sales decreased by
approximately 31,800 units (10.3%).

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased from 35.4% for the three
months ended April 30, 1999 to 40.2% for the three months ended April 30, 2000.
For the nine months ended April 30, 2000, gross profit increased to 37.6% from
33.4% for the same period in fiscal 1999. The increase results from (1) lower
manufacturing costs resulting from the relocation of the remaining manufacturing
operations from the Company's Tulsa facility to the Company's Mexico facility,
(2) the discontinuance of certain low margin, non-mapping portable GPS
navigation units and (3) lower raw material costs.

Selling and administrative costs increased as a percentage of sales due
primarily to lower revenue year over year. Research and development expense
increased as a percentage of sales as a result of the Company's renewed focus on
new product offerings. Severance and merger costs increased as a percentage of
sales year over year as the Company transferred additional production related
jobs to its Mexico facility during the first quarter of fiscal 2000 and incurred
additional costs relative to its now terminated merger with Orbital Sciences
Corporation. Operating expenses decreased by $407,000 for the three months ended
April 30, 2000 as compared to the same period last year. Total operating expense
as a percentage of sales increased from 19.5% to 23.4% for the same period.
There were no severance and merger costs for the period as the remaining
liability was fully accrued as of January 31, 2000. For the nine months ended
April 30, 2000, operating expenses decreased by $78,000 as compared to last year
and total operating expense as a percentage of sales increased from 27.0% to
31.9%.

Interest expense for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2000 was $289,000
and $813,000 lower, respectively, than for the same periods in fiscal 1999.
Increased cash flows from operations and reduced inventories and accounts
receivable enabled the Company to reduce its debt and, thereby, its interest
expense.

The after-tax net income for the three months ended April 30, 2000 was $2.5
million as compared to $3.0 million for the same period in fiscal 1999. For the
nine months ended April 30, 2000, the after-tax net income was $910,000 as
compared to $1.1 million for the same period in fiscal 1999. Excluding severance
and merger costs, the after-tax net income for the nine-month period would have
been $3.1 million as compared to $2.1 million for the same period in fiscal
1999. This improvement is due to higher gross profits and lower operating
expenses as described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

The Company's primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations, a
$26.5 million revolving credit line and lease financing. The revolving credit
line includes a borrowing base of 85% of qualifying accounts receivable, 30% of
qualifying raw material inventory and 60% of qualifying finished goods inventory
with borrowings from inventories limited to $13 million.

Consistently lower inventory and receivables combined with higher gross margins
and lower operating expenses resulted in an improvement in operating cash flows
of $5.4 million for the nine months ended April 30, 2000 as compared to the same
period in fiscal 1999. Cash flows from operations were $4.3 million for the nine
months ended April 30, 2000 while cash flows used in operations were $1.1
million during the same period in fiscal 1999. The cash flows from operations
were utilized to reduce outstanding debt and to fund $1.0 million in capital
expenditures.

In March 2000, the Company amended its agreement covering the revolving credit
line and its term loan. The amendment extended the maturity of the agreement
from December 31, 2000 to December 31, 2002 with a renewal option to extend the
agreement to December 31, 2003. The amendment also reduced the interest rate on
the revolving credit line and the term loan to prime plus .5% from prime plus
1.5%. At April 30, 2000, the Company had $3.3 million available under the
revolving credit line.

Management believes the sources of liquidity discussed above are adequate to
satisfy the Company's current financing needs.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
---------------------------------------------------------

The Company is exposed to cash flow and interest rate risk due to changes in
interest rates with respect to its long-term debt. See Note 3 to the
consolidated financial statements for details on the Company's long-term debt.

Outlook
-------

The Company anticipates continued profitability in fiscal 2000, primarily as the
result of continuing cost reduction efforts, continuing favorable economic and
market conditions and lower manufacturing costs related to the relocation of
additional manufacturing operations to Mexico. Management currently anticipates
positive cash flows from operations in fiscal 2000 based on attaining current
projections for net income and inventory levels. The expectation for continued
profitability based on the above factors constitutes forward-looking statements
within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. While the Company believes that these
forecasts are based on reasonable assumptions, no assurances can be given that
these goals will be achieved. If the Company experiences production delays due
to raw material shortages or unforeseen competitive pressures, this could have a
materially adverse effect on current projections. Additionally, because of the
dynamic environment in which the Company operates, any one of several factors,
including but not limited to perceived general economic conditions, weather
conditions, raw material availability and new product introductions by
competitors, could rapidly deteriorate, thereby having an adverse effect on
expected results for the remainder of the year.
