(NASDAQ: RFIL) announced that it has sold its RadioMobile operations to RadioMobile, Inc., a company formed by the management team of that division. In exchange for the transfer of the assets, RadioMobile, Inc. will pay RF Industries a portion of all of its future revenues for three years. Howard Hill, Chief Executive Officer of RF Industries "RF Industries is focused on our strategy to provide interconnect products and complex cable assemblies primarily to the wireless market, while RadioMobile specializes in providing customized mobile public safety communications systems.
