            Management's
      Discussion and Analysis of the Financial Condition and Results of
      Operations





The
partnership originally licensed the manufacturing and sale of its products to
Communications Research Corporation, (CRC) a subsidiary of Energy Sciences
Corporation, (ESC). ESC and the Partnership entered Chapter 11 bankruptcy
proceedings on April 29, 1986. On May 13, 1988, ESC's bankruptcy was dismissed
and all remaining assets, primarily amounts owed to ESC by the partnerships and
the rights to produce electronic products at CRC, were repossessed by the sole
secured creditor of ESC, Mr. Thomas Murphy. A new company was formed in
September 1988, called LINC Technology Corporation. The company ownership was
restructured recently and is now owned by Messrs. Maes and Steffey in the amount
of 41% each; the balance of 18% onwership is held by Mr. Murphy's heirs, Mr.
Nichols, a founder, and by outside investors. Mr. Nichols resigned from LINC in
August 1991, but remains a stockholder. LINC has been initially privately
financed with $49,000 of cash to pursue a variety of opportunities in
electronics and data communications. LINC believes that a market remains for
some of the partnerships' products. Initial emphasis is on LCM and DOVE. A
license has been entered into between the partnership and LINC, similar in terms
to that which existed with CRC, with the exception that in return for
elimination of most of the debt owed by the partnerships to ESC, (and now,
therefore, Mr. Murphy), and in recognition of the need to attract more capital
for LINC, the royalty to be paid the partnerships is set at 5% of gross sales,
(compared to the prior formula, ranging from 10% down to 6%). The new royalty is
divided between partnerships in the case of joint ownership of rights, such as
the case with DOVE, for example. All royalties were deferred for three years
from September 1988 in order to allow LINC to build its working capital.
Starting in September 1991, royalties are 1% of gross sales for twelve months,
3% of gross sales for the next twelve months and 5% thereafter.




In 1995,
a new royalty agreement was put into effect in order to reduce administrative
expenses. Under the new plan, no royalties will accrue to the partnership until
a total of $300,000.00 of sales on products licensed to LINC Technology
Corporation have been generated and collected. At that point, a lump sum royalty
payment of $15,000.00 will be paid to the patrnership group of TASA Products
Limited (the Partnership), Energy Sciences Limited Partnership, Telemetric
Controls Limited Partnership, and Communications Link Limited Partnership. After
such payment, again no royalty will accrue or be owed until another $300,000.00
in sales has occured, after which a second lump sum of $15,000.00 is due, and so
forth. LINC Technology Corporation will be responsible for periodic mailings to
the partnership at its expense. Bases on IRS regulations, no partnership 1065
tax returns and K-1s will have to be filed or issued until the royalty accrues.
Royalties of $12,118 were paid to the Partnership in December 1999 and a total
disbursement of $10,906 was made to the limited partners in February 2000.
$1,212 was paid to historical creditors of the partnership. The general partners
did not receive any payments from the partnership.




As
described above, in 1995, the General Partners put in place an arrangement under
which royalties would not be payable to the partnerships and profit would not
accrue until a total of $300,000 in sales had occured. In 2003, as the amount of
sales was approaching $300,000 again, the General Partners reviewed the costs
associated with preparing the partnership tax returns (Form 1065) and the
preparation and mailing of both the K-1s and distribution checks. Based on our
experience in 2000, the General Partners estimated the cost to be approximately
$5000.00. In addition, the General Partners heard from many Limited Partners
that the trouble involved in providing the tax information to their accountants
was not worth the money that they received. The General Partners therefore
increased the level of sales required before a royalty payment is due from
$300,000 to $600,000, which would result in a royalty payment totalling $30,000,
instead of $15,000 to be divided among all individual limited partners, the
amount will be $30,000. As a result, a smaller percentage of the royalty would
go to tax form and check preparation costs. As a result of this new arrangement,
no royalties accrued in this fiscal period.




Only a
small portion of the LINC Technology Corporation's sales were for products which
the Partnership licenses to LINC Technology Corporation. Accounting of the
amount of sales on products subject to partnership royalty will not be done
until the end of the calender year.

LINC
filed a registration statement with the State of Washington, under the ULOR
provision, for sale of up to $450,000 worth of its common stock, which became
effective May 9, 1989.  No stock was sold under the offering and it
was withdrawn on May 10, 1990.  Thus far LINC has supported its growth
from its own cash flow.





LINC
Technology Corporation's address is 3535 Factoria Blvd. S.E., Bellevue, WA 98006
and telephone 425-882-2206.  Modest sales of the partnership's
products continue to be made but are still irregular quarter to
quarter.  The company concentrates on industrial data
communications.  There can be no guarantee that LINC will be
successful, or that sufficient sales of the partnership's products will result
so that any significant royalties will be paid to the partnership.  No
royalties or expenses were accrued by or paid to the partnership in the quarter
ending 9-30-08.

      1:
            Legal
      Proceedings





The staff
of the Securities and Exchange Commission's Division of Enforcement recommended
to the Commission that it authorize the staff to file a civil injunction action
against the Partnership and Messrs. Maes and Steffey to require timely filing of
reports with the commission.  Such an injunction was entered on June
25, 1986. All subsequent reports have been timely filed.





On
October 16, 1989 the U.S. Bankruptcy Court ordered the conversion of the
partnership's Chapter 11 to a Chapter 7.  On May 11, 1990, the
partnership filed an amended motion to dismiss the Chapter 7.  The
motion was granted on June 21, 1990 and the partnership is no longer in
bankruptcy.

            Controls
      and  procedures


Page

The
Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed in reports that are filed or submitted
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed,
summerized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms
of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Disclosure controls and
procedures include, without limitation, controls and proceedures designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports
that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and communicated to the
issuer's management including its principal executive and principal financial
officers, or persons performing similar functions (the General Partners), as
appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure.





The
General Partners have reviewed the effectiveness of the Partnership's disclosure
controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q
report and have concluded that the disclosure controls and proceedures are
effective.





There
were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the
three months ended Sept. 30, 2008 that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
