                         Orders from Chinese Customers                         

Software Radio Technology plc ("SRT" or the "Company") is pleased to announce
that it has received orders from two Chinese customers totalling US$ 300,000.

The orders are for SRT's Class B products and are destined to fill demand from
local authorities which are fitting AIS to their fishing fleets.

China is in the process of building the world's largest AIS network to cover up
to 550,000 vessels which are planned to be fitted with an AIS device by 2015.

Simon Tucker said, "Last year we recognised that the China market opportunity
was bigger than we expected and took action to broaden our customer base. These
orders are the first we have seen from these new customers and given the market
opportunity we expect to see more in the future.'
