RELM WIRELESS RECEIVES $2.0 MILLION IN ORDERS

Thursday October 7, 9:00 am ET

WEST MELBOURNE, Fla., Oct. 7, 2004 -- RELM Wireless Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: RELM - News) announced today the receipt of orders from federal and state government agencies totaling approximately $2.0 million during the last month of the third quarter 2004. The orders were primarily for new high-specification RELM BK Radio “P25” digital equipment, including the new flagship DPH digital portable handheld radio, termed the “First Affordable Digital” for public safety, homeland security and government agencies. Deliveries are scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2004.

Driving accelerated growth in the domestic market for land mobile radio (LMR) equipment, government and public safety radio users nationwide are now migrating to new digital radio systems that are in compliance with the public safety technical standard known as APCO Project 25 (P25), according to RELM President and CEO David Storey. Of key importance in such areas as homeland security and public safety, a primary requirement of P25 is interoperability among compliant equipment, regardless of the manufacturer. Thus the RELM BK Radio DPH is interoperable and can be used with other manufacturers’ equipment that is also P25-compliant. RELM is one of very few manufacturers offering technology that meets demanding APCO Project 25 specifications.

“What is happening here is that more government, public safety and homeland security agency decision-makers are discovering, and buying, the unique and extraordinary value of our P25 solution,” observed David Storey. “Our RELM BK Radio DPH portable radio offers exceptional performance, especially in terms of longer battery life, extreme audio clarity and rugged durability, all at a much lower cost than competitors’ comparable P25 equipment. That combination is proving to be very appealing to agencies operating under tight budget constraints, yet in an increasingly sophisticated and security-conscious environment.

“We believe our timing and product development strategy will enable us to increase our participation in the leading edge of the P25 migration,” Storey continued. “The latest orders again demonstrate that the number of new agencies choosing our RELM BK Radio DPH digital portable radio continues to grow and expand since its introduction just last year. With new additional P25 products and capabilities emerging in the coming months, we look forward to building on our momentum.”
