Radio message display system
First Claim
1. A radio message display system for displaying a message entered by transmitting the message over a radio link, comprising:
- an input device for entering a message;
an encoder for coding an output of said input device;
a paging transmitter for modulating a carrier by an output of said encoder and transmitting said modulated carrier as a radio carrier;
a paging receiver having a receiving and demodulating section for receiving and demodulating the radio carrier to produce said message, a display section for displaying said message on said paging receiver, and an output terminal for outputting said message at the same time as said message is being received; and
a display panel having an input terminal and a mounting section for mounting said paging receiver, said message being supplied from said output terminal to said input terminal when said paging receiver is mounted in said display panel, and a display for displaying said message from said input terminal.

Abstract
A radio message display system for transmitting a message entered on an input device over a radio link which is set up by a paging transmitter and a paging receiver, the message being displayed on a display panel. A transmit side is provided with an encoder for coding the message entered on the input device, and the paging transmitter adapted to modulate a carrier by the coded message and transmitting the modulated carrier. A receive side, on the other hand, is provided with the display panel in which the paging receiver is accommodated for receiving and demodulating the carrier. The receiver may display the message on a display section thereof or deliver it to an external output terminal thereof. The display panel supplied with the message via the output terminal of the receiver displays it on another display section.
