(OTCBB:MLTA), announced today that its Australian based affiliate SDR Technologies has successfully completed its first offshore field test and customer based demonstration of the SpectruCell SDR multiple protocol wireless base station equipment in Korea.
During the third week of April a team of four engineers, including the companies VP of Research & Development, Mr. Simon Cleary, took a SpectruCell SDR BTS unit to a major Telecom client premises in Korea, and successfully demonstrated functionality of the unit for the completion of handset-to-handset GSM voice calls between multiple standard GSM handsets, and CDMA2000 functionality using standard CDMA2000 handsets.
