area that it fully equipped with modern assembling and
testing equipment. Deputy General Manager Olga Ilina

relay lines, multi user access systems and other
electronics incorporating parts from Hittite Microwave
Corporation, Deputy General Director Olga Ilina stated
that Kadah did not receive any of the items in reftel
cable subject to this PSV. ECO Liston was therefore
not able to account for the shipment.
