The Quansheng UV-K5 and K6 are the new ultra cheap handhelds around. They certainly meet your low power requirements.

I am asking this question here as I believe there is a good collection of folks who are familiar with different radios. Of course whatever is recommended I hope it can be programmed with Chirp.
I am looking for a handheld radio that can do 12.5khz bw audio that can be used for data. I would hope it would have a flat audio in/out port but if not mods are part of the game.
It needs to be frequency stable (I will be using it for data) and 12.5khz channel widths. and of course programmable with Chirp.
The radio cost needs to be low, I would like to keep the whole project under $500. I will need two radios 1 for RX and 1 for TX. There will be a controller involved.
If need be I will put each radio in a can for isolation. This is for a solar project so that is also part of the reason to try to use a handheld.
