Since you are in Australia and you probably do not have a Yaesu repair
facility close by I would stay away from their crap radios.
Their VHF/UHF mobiles are known for poor performance, poor reliability and
just crappy built quality.
I have owned radios from all the major manufactures and Kenwood, along
with
Icom are some of the best for the dollar.
A "Bullet-Proof" mobile for the money ($269 US) is the Kenwood TM-G707A.
Good performance all around.
