Hi Karl,

Radio targets only work within the same file.

Just like HTML anchor links: <a href="#anchor">voila</a>.

Allowing a radio target to be reached outside the current file would
lead to blur the distinction between radio targets and... links.

That said, you can write your own function, taking inspiration from
org-link--search-radio-target and adding it to org-open-link-functions,
where your function searches the target outside of the current buffer.

Not sure, of course, whether this is trivial or not :)

HTH,
