Hi Josh -

You might also consider the Icom IC-2200H.  There's a manufacturer's 
coupon readily available which brings the street price down to about 
$139.  One advantage of this radio is that you could later upgrade it 
with a UT-118 module to make it compatible with the D-STAR digital 
repeaters that are starting to pop up here and there.  It also receives 
the aircraft band.
