Simple..
An obsolete, unsupported house brick sized radio that will pull your pants down and get in the way when clipped to your belt, you will struggle to get service or spare parts for and also gets horribly overloaded on VHF air and LMR
or
a current model, well supported and compact radio that is still in production, performs well on all band with few interference issues and can be serviced by the manufacturer and possibly others.
If you intend to use the radio as a handheld and cart it around in your pocket or on your belt, there really is only one IMHO.
I have the PSR-500 (almost the same as the 106) and the 396xt and the PSR500/106 rarely leaves the house. The 396xt on the other hand accompanies me on almost every trip due to it's size & performance.
