I am unsure, wondered that myself. Just used it because the petition website required a photo. Could not find the source either to find out.

Zach, I am 100% positive I am incorrect, but when I saw that radio in the picture the first thought that came to my mind was one of the first or second model of Tait Orca series portables, but I could not find any model pictures to find out for sure. Tait made several, like Motorola did with the HT series, that when purchased and used in other countires, they worked the same and used the same accessories, but looked slightly different, such as button colors. Like the HT1250 compared to the GP380 which sometimes came with red and green buttons.

It's a Sepura handheld terminal probably STP8000 used for TETRA network.
