UHF Handheld - Best Option for Back-up on the CSR

Hi all, I'm currently planning to lead a small convoy on the CSR and am looking for advice. I have a GME in-car unit which works well. However, the aerials regularly break when undergoing extensive driving on corrugations.

As a back-up I am thinking of buying a handheld unit or pair. I am considering the 5W GME TX 6200 but it's pricey at about $400 for a single unit, or the GME TX650 twin pack at about $200.

I am guessing that the 5W unit may be OOT for convoy work but maybe useful in emergencies in other contexts.

Has anyone any experience with these units pls?

Cheers in anticipation.
