If you add the action to the radio he will get the action on his list when he goes near the radio.  He will need to be a within a few feet though.  

radioname addAction ["Turn on the radio", "radioout.sqs"]

put the hint in radioout.sqs

If you want it to happen when he is further away try grouping him with a trigger and have the trigger do what you want.
