Adams Sr. Vice-President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer 8150 Trans Canada Highway Montreal, QC H4S1M5 Canada Re: SR Telecom, Inc Form 20-F for Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2004 Filed May 2, 2005 Form 6-K dated July 30, 2004 Filed August 4, 2004 File No. 000-50378 SR Telecom Letter Dated October 13, 2005 Dear Mr. Adams: We have previously reviewed and commented on your Form 20-F and your Form 6-K dated July 30, 2004. We have reviewed your response dated October 13, 2005 and have the following additional comment. Please understand that the purpose of our review process is to assist you in your compliance with the applicable disclosure requirements and to enhance the overall disclosure in your filing. We look forward to working with you in these respects. We welcome any questions you may have about our comments or on any other aspect of our review. Feel free to call us at the telephone numbers listed at the end of this letter. General We note your response letter dated October 13, 2005 to our letter of September 28, 2005. In your response, you did not address the materiality of your Sudan-related revenues for years prior to 2005. As noted in our initial comment, Exhibit 99.1 to your 6-K dated July 30, 2004, and filed August 4, 2004, states that for the three month period ended June 30, 2003, 29 percent of wireless revenue was attributable to business from your customer Sudan Telecom Company; for the three month period ended June 30, 2003, Sudan Telecom Company was responsible for 25.8 percent of total consolidated revenue; and for the six month period ended June 30, 2003, 15.4 percent of total consolidated revenue was geographically attributable to Sudan. Please describe for us your Sudan-related contacts and activities during 2004, and advise us of the amount and nature of your Sudan-related revenue during 2004. In light of the fact that Sudan has been identified by the U.S. State Department as a state sponsor of terrorism, and is subject to economic sanctions administered by the U.S. Treasury Department`s Office of Foreign Assets Control, please discuss the materiality of your Sudan- related contacts and activities during 2004 and 2003, and whether those contacts and activities constitute a material investment risk for your security holders. Discuss in greater detail your assessment of the materiality of your Sudan-related contacts and activities during 2005, and your views as to whether those contacts and activities constitute a material investment risk for your security holders. Include discussion of the factors you considered in reaching your views. In preparing your response, please address not only quantitative factors, but also qualitative factors including the potential impact of your Sudan-related contacts and activities upon your reputation and share value. In this regard, we note again that Arizona and Louisiana have adopted legislation requiring divestment from, or reporting of interests in, companies that do business with U.S.-designated state sponsors of terrorism; California, Illinois, New Jersey and Oregon have adopted legislation requiring divestment from, reporting of interests in, or otherwise regarding companies that do business with Sudan; and several other U.S. states recently have proposed similar Sudan-related legislation. * * * * Please respond to this comment within 10 business days or tell us when you will provide us with a response.
