I'm thinking that these radios would probably be adequate as well: BaoFeng BF-888S https://www.amazon.c.../dp/B00ECW9DB4/
Cracked open one of the three I received from eBay for $20, these things are legit. Good speaker, mic, and actually has a rubber seal around the whole body. Probably old units from gov't, police, or hospitals.
I use the cheap one beacuse it has the larger headphone jack. The name brand ones are smaller and proprietary, the the mic and speaker are vastly superior. The name brand mics are more expensive, but occasionally you can find deals like this on ebay, but you'll never know if its a fake until you try it. I'll pass on the savings to buyers if this 3x set is legit.

Using this one. For the money it works great. Can't go wrong. Also bought an extended battery.

I normally use Motorola Talkabout EM1000r. Purchased headsets a few weeks ago. At the dragon, their range is very limited. And for some reason, I'm always running out of battery. Therefore, yesterday I installed one of these:
