Looks like the HT-750/1250/1550 type VHF antenna (tapers towards the top), threads
are also the same on both radio types.

It looks like a HT750/1250 VHF antenna to me too.
The antennas that come on the HT750 series radios were not too good and there have been many factory issues regaurding poor receive and transmitt range.
The correct antenna for a Saber VHF is
8505816K01 for 130 to 150 mhz yellow paint mark on base
8505816K03 for 150 to 162 Mhz black mark
8505816K05 for 162 to 174 mhz blue mark

and are the same as used on P200/HT600, GP300, HT50, P100, P110 radios.
