WEST MELBOURNE, Fla., 17 Nov. 2010. RELM Wireless Corp. won from the U.S. Navy a blanket purchase agreement (BPA), which includes the company's trunked KNG portable radios, mobile radios, repeaters, and related accessories, operating in the VHF, UHF, and 700/800MHz frequency bands. The BPA has a $5.5 million maximum value, with a term that commenced on October 28, 2010 and expires on October 27, 2015. The BPA does not specify purchase dates or quantities of equipment.
“This is a very exciting win for us; matching new products with a new customer,” David Storey, RELM president and chief executive officer, says. "It also marks our second award from a branch of the U.S. military since our P25 trunked products were released only a month ago. The early order activity for KNG P25 trunked radios is encouraging, and provides a glimpse of the potential for our expanded product line and capabilities."
