two questions....
are hand held ham radios of any value?
what is the BEST and easiest gas can to buy? my husband hates the spouts.
Buy any can.
Then buy working spouts:

Buy the old type at yard sales.
I converted to propane for my electrical generators. I used propane this year that I had bought for Y2K, lasts forever...gasoline does not.
I have the above gurgling style but put vents on the top, back behind the handle that I got from mryellowcap on ebay. That makes them flow free.

New Old Stock Blitz brand cans plus the vent caps. You can also buy nozzles plus nozzle caps and vent caps together. One thing to keep in mind is that the threads are not all the same BUT the blitz nozzle will fit through most threaded pieces. Good for retrofitting new gas cans that are even worse than the gurgling style.
For my little tractor, I let it gurgle because it's just the right speed for the fine screen in the fuel tank.
For my chain saw and other small two stroke items, I use this type of can which originally came with the vents.
Works good because those chain saw fuel tanks are small and easy to overfill but you can use your thumb over the vent as a flow regulator and pretty much shut the flow down when it's full. Then tilt the gas can back.
You can get a handheld Baofeng radio on Amazon for $25.

best bet is look for used at flea markets, habitat for humanity etc. ... unfortunately, used gas cans are like gold ...
the other option is to convert unworkable spouts with a kit:

Battery operated gas can pump means no more lift and pour all over everywhere. Works well and you only need one.
I have been using these cans for years. Dumps 5 gallons really fast and does not leak.
