The following constitutes Amendment No. 30 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (“Amendment No. 30”).  This Amendment No. 30 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.
 
Item 2.
Identity and Background.
 
Paragraph 3 of Item 2(a) is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
 
Set forth on Schedule A annexed hereto is the name and present principal business, occupation or employment and the name, principal business and address of any corporation or other organization in which such employment is conducted of the executive officers and directors of Steel Holdings GP.  To the best of the Reporting Persons’ knowledge, except as otherwise set forth herein, none of the persons listed on Schedule A beneficially owns any securities of the Issuer or is a party to any contract, agreement or understanding required to be disclosed herein.
 
Item 3.
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
 
Item 3 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
 
The aggregate purchase price of the 1,977,023 Shares owned directly by SPHG Holdings is approximately $16,279,241, including brokerage commissions.  The Shares owned directly by SPHG Holdings were acquired with funds of SPHG Holdings and an affiliated entity that initially purchased a portion of the Shares prior to being contributed to SPHG Holdings.
 
The aggregate purchase price of the 35,975 Shares owned by EMH is approximately $252,185, including brokerage commissions.  The Shares owned by EMH were acquired with the working capital of EMH.
 
The aggregate purchase price of the 1,035 Shares owned directly by Mr. Howard is approximately $13,300, including brokerage commissions.  The Shares owned directly by Mr. Howard were acquired with personal funds.  Mr. Howard also owns options that are exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof to purchase 500 Shares awarded to him in his capacity as a director of the Issuer.
 
Mr. Quicke owns options that are exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof to purchase 12,000 Shares and 25,000 restricted Shares awarded to him in his capacity as President and Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Issuer.
 
SPHG Holdings effects purchases of securities primarily through margin accounts maintained for it with prime brokers, which may extend margin credit to it as and when required to open or carry positions in the margin accounts, subject to applicable federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules and the prime brokers’ credit policies.  In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the accounts.
 
Item 5.
Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
 
Item 5(a) is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
 
(a)           The aggregate percentage of Shares reported owned by each person named herein is based upon 3,839,468 Shares outstanding, which is the total number of Shares outstanding as of March 1, 2012 as reported in the Issuer’s Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 9, 2012.

CUSIP NO. 23328R107
 
As of the close of business on June 7, 2012, SPHG Holdings owned directly 1,977,023 Shares, constituting approximately 51.5% of the Shares outstanding.  By virtue of their relationships with SPHG Holdings, each of Steel Holdings, SPHG and Steel Holdings GP may be deemed to beneficially own the Shares owned directly by SPHG Holdings.
 
As of the close of business on June 7, 2012, EMH owned directly 35,975 Shares, constituting less than 1% of the Shares outstanding.  By virtue of his relationship with EMH discussed in further detail in Item 2, Jack L. Howard may be deemed to beneficially own the Shares owned by EMH.  Mr. Howard beneficially owns an additional 1,035 Shares and 500 Shares issuable upon the exercise of options, which, together with the 35,975 Shares owned by EMH that Mr. Howard may also be deemed to beneficially own, constitutes less than 1% of the Shares outstanding.
 
As of the close of business on June 7, 2012, John J. Quicke beneficially owned 25,000 restricted Shares and an additional 12,000 Shares issuable upon the exercise of options, constituting less than 1% of the Shares outstanding.
 
Item 6.
Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
 
Item 6 is hereby amended to add the following:
 
On June 6, 2012, Steel Holdings entered into an agreement (the “Stockholder Agreement”) with Ultra Electronics Defense, Inc. (“UEDI”) in connection with the entry by UEDI into an asset purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with the Issuer and RFI Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer (“RFI”).  The Purchase Agreement provides for the purchase by UEDI from RFI of substantially all of the assets of RFI upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein.  Pursuant to the terms of the Stockholder Agreement, Steel Holdings agreed to appear in person or by proxy at any meeting called for purposes that include the approval and adoption of the Purchase Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Contemplated Transactions”) or at any adjournment thereof, or in any other circumstances upon which a vote, consent or other approval with respect to the Purchase Agreement and Contemplated Transactions is sought by the Issuer and vote: (i) in favor of the approval and adoption of the Purchase Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions; (ii) against any proposal made in opposition to, or in competition with, approval and/or adoption of the Purchase Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions; and (iii) against any other action that is intended, or would reasonably be expected to, materially impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, discourage or adversely affect the approval and adoption of the Purchase Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Steel Holdings shall remain free to vote (or execute consents or proxies with respect to) the securities of the Issuer with respect to any matter not covered by the Stockholder Agreement in any manner it deems appropriate.
 
Steel Holdings also agreed that it will not, prior to the termination of the Stockholder Agreement: (i) transfer, assign, sell, gift-over, pledge, encumber, hypothecate, exchange or otherwise dispose (whether by sale, liquidation, dissolution, dividend or distribution) of any or all of the securities of the Issuer, including any additional securities of the Issuer which it may subsequently acquire, including all additional equity securities which may be issued to it upon the exercise of any options, warrants or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for securities of the Issuer (all such securities of the Issuer, “Subject Securities”) or any right or interest therein, or consent to any of the foregoing (any such action, a “Transfer”); (ii) enter into any derivative arrangement with respect to, or create or suffer to exist any liens or encumbrances with respect to, any or all of the Subject Securities or any right or interest therein; (iii) enter into any contract, option or other agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect to any Transfer; (iv) grant any proxy, power-of-attorney or other authorization or consent with respect to any Subject Securities with respect to any matter that is, or that could be exercised in a manner, inconsistent with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and the Stockholder Agreement or the provisions thereof; (v) deposit any Subject Securities into a voting trust, or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with respect to any Subject Securities; or (vi) enter into any contract or agreement that would be breached by, or take any other action that would reasonably be expected to prevent or delay, Steel Holdings’ compliance with its obligations under the Stockholder Agreement.
