Hi, Claw.

 > Packet radio seems more expensive that you would expect

Yeah, welcome to amateur radio :) Feels we got the miniaturisation, power 
efficiency and jazzy features that the last 40 years of developments in 
electronics brought along but none of the economy.

Well... there are Baofengs now but a) the bigger boys will give you a wedgie if 
you say you have one, and b) the options soon disappear if you want HF kit.
