The significance of this order is not its size Stuart, but the feature that allows us to bring in smaller subsystems at a relatively low cost. This increases our competitiveness and provides a valuable service to our customers. Its value is in the high/middle five figure range (some costs have not been finalized yet).

The CDPD feature allows companies in all industries where we are active to inexpensively link to stations far beyond the range of conventional radio links or be used in mobile applications. Didn't I read something about mobile SCADA on a previous post? I wanted to comment on this application at that time, but the order was still in the discussion stage.

We are also looking at applying this to poletop breakers in the electrical distribution area, portable generating stations and isolated stations not serviced by telephone.
