Item 5.02

Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.

Effective August 17, 2006, Timothy W. O’Neil, Warren N. Romine and John Wellhausen were appointed as members of the Board of Directors of RELM Wireless Corporation (the “Registrant”). There are no arrangements or understandings between any of Messrs. O’Neil, Romine or Wellhausen and any other person pursuant to which any of them was selected as a director. It is expected that Messrs. O’Neil, Romine and Wellhausen will become a member of one or more committees of the Board of Directors. Such committee memberships have yet to be determined, but will be disclosed in an amendment to this Form 8-K by the Registrant following such determination. There are no relationships or related transactions between any of Messrs. O’Neil, Romine or Wellhausen and the Registrant of the type required to be disclosed under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. In accordance with the Registrant’s bylaws, the Board fixed the number of directors at nine, though current directors James C. Gale and Ralph R. Whitney do not intend to stand for reelection at the 2007 annual stockholders’ meeting, at which time the size of the Board will be reduced to seven members. As a result of the appointment of Messrs. O’Neil, Romine and Wellhausen, the Board is currently comprised of nine members.

A copy of the press release announcing Messrs. O’Neil’s, Romine’s and Wellhausen’s appointments (as well as their business experience) and Messrs. Gale’s and Whitney’s intention to not stand for reelection is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by this reference.
