Can anyone ID the radio he's got? South African game warden. I've got the rifle, I just need the radio to go with it, I actually think it may be a racal prm4720 based on the antenna but I'm not sure. Any help? 
ETA. Yes, I'm actually serious. |

Looks too thick to be a Racal from the images I see with a Google search. The Racal looks really thin and "brick like". The one in the pic looks rounded at the top and almost looks like it has a separate "lid" screwed on. It's much thicker too.
I'm judging by internet pics alone.

The prm4720b2 had a speaker bolted on the top section doubling the thickness there. I'm not sure if SA used it. Grinel was a racal subsidiary however and actually did alot of development on the Syncal30 HF radio back in the 70's/80's including a frequency hopping variant. Thats the main reason I thought Racal of some sort. Block2 version (people didn't like the fact the original could only work with handset/mic in those days)
