Radio control transmitter
First Claim
1. In a radio remote control transmitter assembly, comprising an antenna and a transmitter, said transmitter comprises radio frequency means connected to the antenna to supply a radio frequency signal thereto and means to modulate the radio frequency signal supplied by the radio frequency means, said assembly further comprising switching means, a source of electrical energy, and encoder means selectively supplying any of a plurality of distinctive output signals to the modulating means in response to different conditions of said switching means, the improvement wherein the components comprised by the transmitter assembly are incorporated into the structure of a vest-type garment, and the switching means comprises a plurality of switches located on said garment at spaced locations relative by the trunk of a user, said switches being of a non-manipulatory type selectively operable to juxtaposition of a switch control means attached to a portion of the user'"'"'s body movable relative to said locations on the user'"'"'s trunk.
