"I am first of all not a science fiction writer … I write, I suppose, what the Latin Americans call magic realism."
- Harlan Ellison

Suit-Radio  
  A means of communication between two individuals clad in space suits.  

Very early use of this term; I think the idea was used a generation earlier, but I can't find the reference.

"But I'll catch up," he promised as he made connection between his suit-radio and the Station communicator system.
From Long Way, by George O. Smith.
Published by Astounding Science Fiction in 1944
