Shipitsina agreed to contact Komor every two weeks for
an update. On November 2, 2007 Komor advised FSN

2007 FSN Shipitsina spoke with Komor and Alexander
Zhdanov, Chief Metrologist for Rostovskiy NII
Radiosvyazi at which time Komor advised FSN Shipitsina
that they had decided not to purchase the equipment
and therefore do not want to meet with Post Moscow.
