Item 7.01    Regulation FD Disclosure.

On April 4, 2014, pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of May 8, 2009, between Comtech Telecommunications Corp. (the “Company”) and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee (the “Trustee”), and relating to the Company's $200.0 million principal amount of 3.0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2029 (CUSIP Nos. 205826AE0 and 205826 AF7) (the “Senior Notes”), the Trustee sent a Notice of Redemption to holders of the Senior Notes (the "Holders") indicating that the Company intends to redeem any Senior Notes that remain outstanding on May 5, 2014. On April 3, 2014, the Trustee also sent a Repurchase Notice to the Holders indicating that the Holders may require the Company to repurchase some or all of their outstanding Senior Notes, solely for cash, on May 1, 2014. If all of the Senior Notes are redeemed or repurchased, the Company would pay the Holders $200.0 million, plus any accrued and unpaid interest. Copies of the Notice of Redemption and Repurchase Notice are attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

Prior to the redemption or repurchase, the Holders may convert some or all of their holdings into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $31.85 per share (a conversion rate of 31.3953 shares per $1,000 original principal amount of Senior Notes). As such, it is not possible to predict the extent to which any Senior Notes will remain outstanding and, therefore, subject to the redemption on May 5, 2014 or a repurchase on May 1, 2014. In any event, none of the Senior Notes will remain outstanding after May 5, 2014.

The information in this Item 7.01 is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section and shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, except as otherwise expressly stated in such filing.

Item 9.01    Financial Statements and Exhibits.
