Portable Comm Recommendation?

[toobuilder]

I'm hoping to be flying a Cub type airplane with no electrical system in the near future. I'm also long overdue a backup handheld for my current airplanes, so I thought I'd ask you guys if there is a consensus on a low frills, but high performance Comm on the market. I dont need GPS, CDI, ect. I just want to be able to dial up a freq and actually reach out and touch the outside world. Good battery life is also high on the list.

Anyone have a product recommendation?

Thanks for your time.
