Does anyone know what the radio is for? It looks like a handheld CB radio.
Was it a prop for the scene, or was it used to coordinate filming?
Thanks for posting your collection.

From wiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Bishop_(artist) (the page might be removed in the future, because it does not contain references):
Robert K. Bishop (1945–1991) was an American bondage artist, often credited as The Bishop or simply Bishop. Most of Bishop's art appeared in magazines and catalogues from 1971 to the 1980s. By the mid-1990s, Bishop's art had long been out of print. The originals had largely been lost or destroyed. Even a partial reprinting in 1992–1993 was based on previously published copies.
Work
Bishop's work has been published extensively in bondage magazines, especially those of Centurions Publications, Harmony Concepts Inc. and the bondage publisher House of Milan. His work was known for being very detailed and vivid.
His main theme was extremely tight and/or reinforced bondage that showed its subjects straining against their restraints. The bondage depicted often involved elaborate harnesses and gags designed by Bishop.
Although almost all of his work depicted women in bondage, he also produced some series of female dominant images, and a few male bondage images, some of which are now displayed at the Leather Archives and Museum in Chicago.
Bishop also produced the Fanni Hall series of damsel-in-distress bondage comics.
In addition to his many illustrations in bondage magazines, his art was showcased in a number of dedicated magazines published by House of Milan and Lyndon Distributors Limited.
Techniques
Bishop's illustrations were mostly in black and white using pen and ink, with spot use of airbrushing for shading. His work makes much play with the contrast between pale skin and black restraints and latex garments, and with the use of shading to imply shiny rubber textures and musculature. His colour illustrations were mostly for magazine covers, due to the economic constraints of bondage magazine production. He also drew in a softer pencil style, with subtle use of pencil shading. Materials for original works included pencil on vellum and inks on illustration board.
Death and legacy
He committed suicide at the age of 46. His work has been extensively circulated on the Internet, and originals of his pictures are now collectors' items.

With a little bit of internet searching, I believe it's a Realistic (Radio Shack) TRC-215 six channel CB radio.
https://www.radiomuseum.org/r/radioshack..._1653.html
That site says it's in the 1988 Radio Shack catalog. The photos of Bishop in the desert are from earlier than that.
It's not the original antenna. I know because I have the antenna in the picture and I use it on my scanner.
My guess is he had a spotter up the road looking for traffic and that's how they communicated.
