Don't forget line of sight!
VHF radios operate on line of sight, and the radio waves do very little bending. One distinct advantage of a "regular" unit will be the antenna, which will do a better job of sending, and especially receiving a signal over a handheld's on board antenna, along with the 5-8 times greater wattage.
