GALION,
Ohio, March 28, 2006 - PECO II, Inc. (Nasdaq: PIII), a full-service provider of engineering and installation on-site services and a manufacturer of communications power systems and equipment to the communications industry, announced today the

"With this important milestone, PECO II enhances its ability to serve its customers", said John Heindel, president and chief executive officer. "Delta's worldclass technology and manufacturing resources complement PECO
II's strong customer service, system design and system integration capabilities, making this an outstanding combination".
"This is a great
