FD DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE
ADDvantage Technologies Group, Inc.
Expands Role with Scientific-Atlanta
Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, March 10, 2003-ADDvantage Technologies Group,
(OTCBB:ADDM) announced today that its subsidiary, Tulsat, is expanding its
legacy products distribution program, by adding more product coverage under
its existing exclusive agreement with Scientific-Atlanta.
Tulsat's legacy products program, initiated last year, with Scientific-
Atlanta is unique in the industry. The program permits the manufacturer to
maintain production efficiencies as volumes drop on maturing products, by
producing a significant volume for Tulsat on a periodic basis. Customers
benefit by having a convenient way to continue purchasing legacy products
from a ready supply of inventory, rather than waiting on long lead times
that often occur at the factory.
Initial products included in the program were Scientific-Atlanta's
Prisma I Optics platform and its high-performance fixed-channel analog headend
products. Such products include the industry classic 6350 modulator and its
companion signal processor, as well as stereo encoding and demodulator
products. Products now being added to the program include Scientific-Atlanta's
flagship analog satellite receivers, agile modulators, stereo encoders and
mid-market fixed-channel modulators.
"We are pleased that Scientific-Atlanta has decided to expand the legacy
products program with us", commented Dave Chymiak, Chairman of the Board of
Addvantage Technologies Group. "This additional line coverage completes the
transition of the legacy analog headend line which began last year, and further
complements our expanding role as a master distributor and service center for
Scientific-Atlanta."
ADDVANTAGE TECHNOLOGIES GROUP, INC. and its subsidiaries, TULSAT, LEE CATV
Corporation, NCS Industries, Comtech Services, TULSAT -Texas, and
TULSAT-Atlanta comprise an organization involved in the re-manufacture, repair
and sale of previously owned cable television ("CATV") equipment and the
distribution of new and surplus equipment to CATV operators for manufacturers
such as Scientific-Atlanta and Motorola. For more information, please

directly at 918-251-9121.
