[Premium-Rx] WJ lives again ?

[Verne Anderson]

DRS Technologies currently owns the CEI Group making the WJ 8711A (HF1000A)
and other receivers from CEI line.

SciComm was purchased by Condor Systems Inc that was sold to EDO Corp. in NY

EDO Reconissance and Surveillance Systems in Morgan Hill, CA was Condor.

Condor Systems Inc. was made up the following:
Watkins_Johnson Recon Group
ESSI
Argo Systems (a division)
SciComm
Other groups.

Been like a Merry-Go-Round in Defense Electronics since the 1990's.
Currently companies in Defense Electronics are doing well for the Homeland
Security and Irag situation.
