Abstract: An in-ground enclosure for housing electrical components is provided. The in-ground enclosure can include an outer shell defining an internal compartment housing a lift system, an equipment rack structure connected to the lift system, an upper panel comprising a compartment opening for accessing the internal compartment, an enclosure cover adapted to cover the compartment opening and for removably sealing the compartment opening. In certain uses, a telecommunications base station may also be provided. The telecommunications base station can include the in-ground enclosure and a cellular base station, with the cellular base station including an antenna coupled to signal processing equipment and a power supply. In alternative embodiments, the in-ground enclosure may be configured as a cube-shaped structure, or as a tubular-shaped structure.

Abstract: A radio frequency (“RF”) remote control device for use to control the speed of a motor is disclosed. In one preferred embodiment, the device may be used by a swimmer in a swim spa. The RF device can be preferably formed in shape of a glove to be worn by the athlete/swimmer, such that he or she can readily change the speed of the swim spa current motor, and in turn the speed of the current he or she is swimming against simply by activating respective increase or decrease motor speed signals. In further embodiments, the RF device can also include a stop watch to record duration of exercise, and/or an automatic stroke counter to record the number of strokes during the exercise.
