A compatible variant of a given model. It's used in one place to
distinguish between the UHF and VHF variant of a handheld, as well as on
the VX-8 driver to distinguish between the VX-8R, VX-8GR, VX-8DR, all of
which are nearly identical, but might have teensy differences.

It's really not a hugely important distinction.
