INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Datron Systems Incorporated
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets
available for benefits of Datron Systems Incorporated
Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan") as of March
31, 2000 and 1999 and the related statements of changes
in assets available for benefits for each of the two
years in the period ended March 31, 2000 and the nine
months ended March 31, 1998. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
We conduced our audits in accordance with auditing
standards generally accepted in the United States of
America. Those standard require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements present
fairly, in all material respects, the assets available
for benefits of the Plan as of March 31, 2000 and 1999,
and the changes in assets available for benefits for
each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 2000
and the nine months ended March 31, 1998, in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.

Note 1. Plan Description
In August 1997, the stockholders of Datron Systems
Incorporated (the "Company") adopted, effective July 1,
1997, the Datron Systems Incorporated Employee Stock
Purchase Plan (the "Plan") under Section 423 of the

eligible employees with the opportunity to acquire an
equity interest in the Company through the acquisition
of stock purchase rights.
Employees are eligible to participate in the Plan
if they have been employed a minimum of five months and
work at least 20 hours per week. Eligible employees may
use funds from accumulated payroll deductions to
purchase shares of Company common stock at the end of
six-month offering periods. They may contribute up to
10% of gross earnings toward such purchases, not to
exceed $12,500 per offering period, and may purchase a
maximum of 1,000 shares per offering period. The
purchase price for the shares is 85% of the lesser of
the fair market value of the common stock at the
beginning of the offering period or at the end of the
offering period. Shares purchased must be held for a
minimum of three months before they can be sold. A total
of 200,000 shares has been authorized for issuance under
the Plan.
