             Subject:          RE: Frequency tolerances.

             Are you sure these are tolerances and not bandwidths? +/-125 MHz equals 250 MHz, which is the
             bandwidth you gave for your signal. From Part 2.1 of the FCC's Rules (47CFR2.1): "Frequency Tolerance
             - The maximum permissible departure by the center frequency of the frequency band occupied by an
             emission from the assigned frequency or, by the characteristic frequency of the emission from the
             reference frequency." "Necessary Bandwidth - For a given class of emission, the width of the frequency
             band which is just sufficient to ensure the transmission of information at the rate and with the quality
             required under specified conditions." Tolerance is an expression of how stable the transmitter is with
             respect to frequency, and is usually in parts per million.

             The items indicated above must be submitted before processing can continue on the above
             referenced application. Failure to provide the requested information within 30 days of February 07, 2002
             may result in application dismissal pursuant to Section 5.67 and forfeiture of the filing fee pursuant to
             Section 1.1108.

             Dear Mr. Young,

             Thank you for the frequency tolerance clarification. Did you mean that
             frequency tolerances are commonly .001% or .001 ? Our tolerances were
             entered in MHz (in GHz for the ULM-31), not percentage. The calculated
             equivalents are as follows (frequency tolerance by model number):

             PPC-100/60
             CF = 59.904 GHz and 61.632 GHz
             Max. tolerance +/-125 MHz, +/-0.002, +/-0.2%

             PPC-100/42
             CF = 40.652 GHz and 42.520 GHz
             Max. tolerance +/-125 MHz, +/-0.003, +/-0.3%

             ULM-31
             CF = 94.000 GHz
             Max. tolerance +/-0.5 GHz, +/-0.005, +/-0.5%

             I have also attached the essence of this message to our application file
             on your Website.

             Best regards,
