David.....I have the same model Yaesu radio. I bought the sport model
(which doesn't come with the rechargeable battery, just the holder for 6
AA batteries). You might also think about getting a similar holder in
addition to the rechargeable battery. Then, when you're in the air and
your aircraft radios crap out, you reach for your handheld, and the
rechargeable battery needs recharging, you can slap in the pack with the
AA's. Been there, done that.
