MITCHEL FIELD, N.Y., January 3, 2007 (PrimeNewswire) -- Frequency Electronics,
Inc. (NASDAQ: FEIM), has acquired an approximate 20% interest in Elcom
Technologies, Inc., a privately-held company located in Rockleigh, New Jersey.

synthesizers, up-down converters, receivers, ceramic resonant oscillators and
dielectric resonant oscillators up to 40 GHz. These instruments and components
are critical for communication, surveillance, signal intelligence, automatic
testing, satellite ground stations and satellite payloads.

Frequency and Elcom entered into a mutual business and facilities support
agreement and Frequency obtained an exclusive license to use Elcom's technology
in space-borne applications. Frequency received preferred stock, a convertible
note and 10-year warrant to purchase additional stock in exchange for an
undisclosed amount of cash and shares of Frequency common stock. Cadwalader,
Wickersham & Taft LLP advised Frequency on the transaction.

Commenting on this transaction, Martin Bloch, President and CEO, said: "We are
very pleased to establish this strategic and mutually beneficial relationship
with the team at Elcom. We have acquired a significant ownership participation
in a company with excellent technology and prospects for growth. In addition,
Elcom provides FEI with added technology and resources to design and build
microwave frequency generators, up-down converters and synthesizers for our
expanding space business. Our agreement facilitates Elcom, in conjunction with
FEI, to pursue larger programs where the capabilities of both companies are
critical for best performance and affordability. The combined companies will
pursue systems requiring low phase noise, excellent short-term stability, fast
switching speed, low g-sensitivity, small size and low power in airborne and
other severe mobile environments."
