Click to visit MicroneticsHudson, NH – July 10, 2009 – Micronetics, Inc. (NASDAQ:NOIZ) announced today that it has received an order in excess of $750K for initial beta testing with a major retailer for its forklift mounted radio frequency identification (RFID) antenna sensor system.

In support of this effort, we will be providing dedicated software and hardware resources during these trials. We are working very closely with our integration partners and the end user to assure success in this retail application.”
