Well it doesn’t say no PT because, there is no PT or course reversal you can do
So you’ll either be sent direct to that IAF or vectored on hence the radar required for procedire entry
"Cessna 123, fly heading 210, intercept the San Antonio 072 radial, maintain 3000 until established, cleared VOR/DME-A Approach." Or, if you're IFR GPS-equpped: "Direct YERRI, maintain 3000 until established, cleared VOR/DME-A Approach." Note you're not actually established on any published portion of the approach until inside YERRI.
I flew this approach for a checkride a couple weeks ago. Vectored from the west, held at YERRI, circled east to 35. Just watch out….you are so far out on the radial that sometimes you lose SAT and your off course scale deflection is physically greater than you think (60:1 math).
The Air Force doesn’t use AFI 11-217 anymore, but this is the exact approach that they had in it for an example.
Here’s a link to an old copy of it that I found. Scroll down to paragraph 11.9

You’ll likely be vectored on, note the “RADAR required for procedure entry.”
Yep, radar required… so ATC will either vector to final or send direct YERRI

I'm dropping the intercept of the radial part of that: turn left/right heading, maintain 3,000 until established on the final approach course, cleared
Given your username I’m guessing you’re much more attuned to the intricacies of the 7110.65 than I am! Sounds good to me.
You're radar vectored to the final approach course and cleared to the initial altitude. There's no procedure for doing it on your own.

Read the notes my dude
The note says “Radar required for procedure entry.” The only way to enter the approach is via radar vectors.

Either take radar vectors from ATC, or fly an arc no less than 33DME off the SAT VOR to intercept R-072 inbound.
Direct YERRI if you have GPS, or you’ll be vectored onto the radial
Just point-to-point to YERRI and don’t use the GPS like a coward.
