(Nasdaq: ECIN) of White Haven, PA, today announced his strategy for augmenting EMCEE's revenue stream. In the past months, EMCEE has been overhauled by reorganizing and reducing the work force, by revamping its marketing strategies and by instilling a sense of urgency within the employees. This multi-faceted approach has resulted in a more responsive and nimble company with broader product and service offerings including contract electronics components/equipment manufacturing, technical field services for broadcasters and electronics engineering/design consulting. "We are no longer the narrowly-focused equipment manufacturer of broadcast products limited by the FCC's regulatory inertia and its complex federal licensing process," stated Nardone. EMCEE's doors are open to any industry we can serve with our forty-plus years of experience and technical expertise, and we are aggressively pursuing opportunities to diversify our product line such as the recently-developed worldwide-agile "freedom" transmitter for the U.S. Army Special Operations Command. Although we are now facing several immediate challenges, Nardone is confident about the future of EMCEE. With operations in White Haven, Pennsylvania, and Burlington, Kentucky, EMCEE has over 42 years of RF experience. Its products are installed in more than 100 countries.

(COMTEX) B: EMCEE Delivers to Army Special Ops B: EMCEE Delivers to Army Special Ops WHITE HAVEN, Pa., May 2, 2002 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Richard Nardone, President of EMCEE Broadcast Products, Inc. (Nasdaq: ECIN) announced today that the first shipment has been delivered on a multi-year contract to the U.S. Army Special Operations Command. After meeting stringent design specifications and following extensive R&D, EMCEE Broadcast Products, Inc. delivered thirty days early on their commitment. Model TTU1000CQ, nicknamed "the Freedom transmitter", is a one-of-a-kind, compact, worldwide-agile UHF TV transmitter with an output power of 1,000 watts. What makes this unit so unique is instantaneous front panel tuning. With the flip of a thumb wheel switch, an operator changes the broadcast standard (which varies from country to country). A second thumb wheel changes frequencies from Channel 14 thru 69. The all solid-state unit features a multi-standard modulator, dual 500- watt amplifiers and plug-in redundant power supplies. The units are packaged in air- and moisture-tight hard fly-a-way cases for easy deployment anywhere in the world. EMCEE will produce a commercial version in NTSC format at 500 watts and 1,000 watts that will be available for emergency backup use. Station groups and translator organizations depend on EMCEE for assistance during emergency situations such as equipment outages.
