Abstract: A rucksack (1) for carrying a radio set has a bag (2) with a cover flap (3) and shoulder straps mounted on a rear wall of the bag (2). A removable pouch (5) for carrying a radio set is mounted within the bag (2) on a rear wall of the bag (2). The removable pouch (5) is preferably secured to the rear wall of the bag (2) by means of quick-release spring clips (17). These allow different pouches (5) carrying different radios to be quickly and easily mounted within the rucksack (1) as required. The cover (3) has a pair of slits (24, 25) extending inwardly from each side of the cover (3) for through passage of an aerial and a handset cable when a radio set is mounted in the pouch (5) and the cover (3) is closed.
