FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1999

         Paramus, New Jersey - Wireless Telecom Group, Inc. (AMEX Symbol: WTT)
announced the execution of a definitive agreement to merge Boonton Electronics
Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: BOON) into a wholly owned subsidiary of WTT.
Under the terms of the agreement, each share of Boonton Common Stock will be
converted into (i) 1.4 shares of WTT stock and (ii) an amount of cash equal to
0.175 times the closing price of WTT common stock on the closing date. Based
upon the closing price of WTT's stock on September 3, 1999, the transaction is
valued at approximately $7 million. The merger is expected to be complete before
the end of WTT's fiscal year, December 31, 1999, subject to Boonton stockholder
approval as well as other customary requirements. WTT expects that the
acquisition will result in a doubling of its revenues based upon Boonton's
historical operating results.

"We are excited to have Boonton as part of our team. We feel there is tremendous
synergy with the products they manufacture and the markets in which they
operate. The fact that they are a local company, located in Parsipanny, NJ, will
add additional value and benefits. Perhaps most importantly, this acquisition
adds engineering capability and experience to our organization. This is WTT's
first step in its strategy to add growth through synergistic acquisitions.
WTT and Boonton share a strong customer focus, a history of technological
innovations and together, we will be a formidable force, combining WTT's leading
market position in noise generation products with Boonton's strong position in
power measurement." said Edward Garcia, President and CEO of Wireless Telecom
Group.
