Consider the Vertex radios made by Yaesu. Far better in my opinion and usable with headsets. The A6 and A24 have problems with some headsets.
I wouldn't worry about getting the VOR version. I have never used mine, and they don't work that well without an external aerial.
They both come up fairly frequently on ebay so save yourself some money by buying second hand.
