If you have the time to shop, go for the SABERs. They may cost a little more once you have all the accessories and programming done, but consider what you're getting for that money - a MILSPEC radio that cost upwards of $3000 when they were new, *still* has some of the best transmit/receive quality out there and is built to last, compared to a slightly cheaper civie radio with all of the pros and cons that entails. It's a no-brainer.
