Warhawk,

If you believe you may need buddy box and or setup help then I would suggest finding out what are the most popular brands at your club and buy one of those. If you feel this is not neccessary I personnally think if you can program a VCR you can set up a computer radio you may need to read the instructions but thats what they are there for right? If this is a case I'd look at getting a 6ch radio spend as much as you can afford realizing that If the bug bites you hard this will NOT be your last radio.

My two favorites are Airtronics and JR I have owned 8 Airtronics radios for over 20 years and had zero problems my 2 JR radios are about 6 yrs old also with zero problems
