Default RE: Orbit Radio

Hi,
I'm a little confused, I thought that Cliff Wierick held the pattens on the various systems that make proportional radio's possible, such as the digital feedback used in the servo's, etc. Cliff worked with Kraft for a period of time before a falling out, I heard it was about quality issues but not sure. In fact, Cliff's future wife, Charline Brown, AKA Charlie Brown, was the model used in the PCS ads.
This is the 1st I've heard that that Spreng and Mathes were involved in the development of proportional radios. I knew they were involved in manufacturing, but not the development.
BRG,
Jon
