Considering a limited budget... which is the better to buy - since you can only get one.. A PLB or a Tri-band HT? and which model of either?

For emergency's while hunting, camping, fishing, and just exploring the coastal mountains - which would prove to be a more useful asset? and more used?

I was looking at the Yaesu VX-7RS or maybe the Spot Satellite Personal Messenger

I see both having different advantages but which, provided you could only get one, would be the one to get (or are there other models that would be better for under $200)???
