Do you even know if you are going to use a DMR radio? Both the ones you 'want' are DMR radios and you even said yourself you know nothing about radios. Long story short, DMR is probably gonna be WORTHLESS to you. It's for only the most sophisticated of HAM dudes to talk either privately or LONG distances, and requires supporting software and a live internet connection.
Operating in simplex mode, which is radio to radio communication, probably on FRS frequencies; you will see ZERO benefit in your $250 DMR rig over any radio that comes in a blister pack. These handheld HAM radios have some extreme capabilities for niche applications, but they are not the simple straight forward 'tool' that some preppers want them to be. For example without the supporting software and cable, and knowledge of which frequencies you actually want to be on, this thing will be a paper weight. Find out what frequencies you actually want to be on and then we can make a better radio recommendation. I
