The UK govenment is one of the only administrations in EU not to have ratified this new standard, but it is expected to do so in the next year or so. Then you will be able to find equipment that will fulfill your technical specification.

Bet I cant , the increase in power output is likely to be offset by even greater battery consumption, and SSB does not fit the criteria for basic prepping.

Did a quick, very quick check on the UV5R and to get any practrical use you need to go via a repeater which makes it a no no for general prepping.
