There are several radios that have these capabilities.  For example:

1. Cost Effective (cheap): Quansheng UV-K5(8)/K6, which also has the added capability, I am pretty sure, to flash the firmware to allow SSB/CB reception as well.

2. Not Cost Effective: The ICOM ID-52, which also has the added benefit of being D-Star capable.I have seen used versions of this radio for $400 on QRZ and QTH.

Hello everybody.

So I don't know if this existed but is their a radio that has theses capibilities?

- Receive on 88-108MHz FM (FM radio broadcast)
- Receive on 162.400-162.550 FM (NOAA weather radio)
- Receive/Transmit on 118-136.975 AM (Aviation frequency's)
- Receive/Transmit on 144-148 FM (2-meter band)

Also I would need it to be handheld with 5+ watts of output power.
If anybody knows a radio like this that would help a lot! Thanks in advance.
