PRESS RELEASE

Radyne ComStream Responds to Wegener’s Board of Directors Measures Designed to
Prevent Wegener’s Stockholders from Accepting Radyne’s
Premium Offer

Radyne ComStream Maintains Commitment to Pursuing Tender Offer, Says
Wegener Executives Line Pockets With What Could be Millions of Dollars

PHOENIX, AZ – May 9, 2003 — Radyne ComStream Inc. (Nasdaq: RADN; Warrants: RADNW), today expressed its disappointment that the board of directors of Wegener Corporation (Nasdaq: WGNR) had adopted a number of measures designed to prevent its own stockholders from selling their stock at a significant premium, while at the same time implementing huge severance packages for senior executives.

Bob Fitting, Radyne ComStream’s Chief Executive Officer said, “It is evident from the board’s refusal to recommend our premium cash offer of $1.55 per share, failure to even consider engaging in discussions with us, and blatant attempts to impede shareholder democracy, that Wegener’s board is not seriously committed to realizing stockholder value.”

Mr. Fitting added, “We are absolutely shocked that Wegener’s management would take this opportunity to execute severance agreements for themselves. By ensuring themselves a payout of over a million dollars, and potentially several million dollars, in the event the stockholders support our offer, management has effectively shifted money out of the pockets of stockholders and into the pockets of management. We are stunned that these measures were adopted in the face of our communication that we would be willing to negotiate the price of our offer if the Board would engage in substantive discussions. Frankly, we thought Boards were beholden to stockholders, not management.”

Radyne ComStream also announced that it sent a letter to Wegener’s stockholders expressing its frustration with Wegener’s refusal to allow Wegener stockholders to make their own decision on the adequacy of the offer. The letter also described why Radyne ComStream believes that $1.55 per share represents an attractive alternative to a continued investment in Wegener especially given management’s inability and seeming unwillingness to support the price of the stock.

Mr. Fitting noted, “The opinion of their financial advisor that suggests our offer is inadequate was based on the projections and forecasts provided by management that the advisor simply assumed were capable of being achieved. Given management’s track record, we think the stockholders should have the right to choose between continued investment in Wegener and its questionable ability to achieve its long-term strategy, and the receipt of $1.55 per share in cash today. And, we intend to do everything we can to afford stockholders with that choice.”
