Thank you Mr. Kornberg. We will now begin our question and answer session. (Operator instructions) Our first question comes from Mark Jordan at Noble Financial.

Good morning Fred. The question first on RF. You stated that you saw that lower in revenue. Is that making – is that also include the assumption that Q2 with a large award that you had last week that is not incorporated in it, because I thought you said in the discussion that that could grow if Q2 comes through as expected.
Fred Kornberg
Yes, I think Mark the only thing that we're trying to say here is losing my voice here – the only thing that we're trying to say here is that we are being very, very cautious and because things are very, very cloudy right now. We have been talking to ITT [ph], and we're not getting a very comfortable feeling that we really are getting to know when those orders are going to recur. I personally believe they will occur, but we just don't know when.

Okay. Looking at the Blue Force Tracking and your next generation with the enhanced terminal and the capabilities it has, does it improve, does your equipment improve the functionality of the legacy terminal and hardware in the first generation product, and therefore be an incentive to install your next generation product in advance within the sort of the next gen terminal and softwares available from Northrop Grumman.
Fred Kornberg
Yes, Mark, I think what I kind of alluded to is that we have already done some improvements in our satellite network that provides a better solution to the existing network of the BFT-1 transceivers. Our new transceiver will not only be using, you know, a much higher speed up to over 230 kilobytes per second, but also will be switch selectable, which will allow us to use any speed below that 230 to meet up with the speed of the present network. So I think we have a tremendous advantage that we can field some portions of the future network even with our existing network and slowly grow into the final network.
Mark Jordan – Noble Financial
Right. Our final question, you know, obviously this has been a tough market environment and that, you know, you have continued to generate a lot of cash. You have resisted, you know, share buyback, obviously the stock is down, the market is down, the cautious outlook you have is you know, probably also going to you know, put pressure on the stock. Question is have you considered changing your long-standing resistance to any meaningful share buyback?
