What about this?

Not bad. Definately a candidate. I'm wondering if "Reverse frequency function" means it supports repeaters though...

You have to remember the Chinese to English translations. I have had one of these and yes they are totally flexible on repeaters, basically any offset you want between 0.01 to 99.99.
