SEC pulls Cincinnati Microwave registration - Business Courier of Cincinnati: (http://cincinnati.bizjournals.com/cincinnati/stories/2009/03/16/daily26.html)

More than a dozen years after the company issued its last quarterly financial report in September 1996, the Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday revoked the securities registration of Cincinnati Microwave Inc. (http://cincinnati.bizjournals.com/cincinnati/related_content.html?topic=Cincinnati&#37;20Microwave% 20Inc)

The SEC said the revocation of the registered securities of Cincinnati Microwave (along with three other unrelated companies) was based on its repeated failure to file required periodic reports with the commission. Cincinnati Microwave was a maker of radar detectors.

It described Cincinnati Microwave as “a cancelled Ohio corporation” that last filed a 10Q for the period ended Sept. 29, 1996. It reported a net loss of $12.8 million for the prior nine months. The company filed a petition for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in February 1997 that was terminated in December 2002, it said.

As recently as last month, the company’s common stock was quoted on the over-the-counter pink sheets and had an average daily trading volume of 3,808 shares for the six months ended Feb. 23, 2009, the SEC said.

I don't know if it matters - isn't that just an old name for the former company pre-Bel Tronics?

I don't think it effects VR at all, but, yeah, I think it was something to do with Escort, and then Escort bought Bel...or something like that.

I still don't know what it means...

What's interesting is that they kept the original CM company going through bankruptcy all that time (assuming that its an accurate account).

The way I see it, the SEC merely pulled Cincinnati Microwave from their listings. If I'm not mistaken, Escort still has rights to the Cincinnati Microwave trademark.

I just found this while looking up information on Jim Jaeger who invented the original Escort with Mike Valentine in the 70's.

Jazzy = buzz kill. Today was LITERALLY the worst day of my meager 21 years...so I of course ran to the forums for consoling. I guess the day isn't over yet. Thanks, Jazzy.
