The only full duplex radio on the market that doesn't desense* on SO-50 is the Kenwood TH-D72. There are several out of production radios that also work with it, like some revisions of the Icom IC-W32.
*I have a TH-D72 and I find I intermittently experience some desense when I use full power. At low power (500 mW I believe) I never experience desense. I know of one other person who has this problem.

Hello,
I've been working the birds for a while now, and I have been using only 2 Boafengs. I've realized they desense VERY easily on SO-50 and even AO-91 and 92. I have a band pass filter for the FOX sats, so I can hear my downlink. However, I still haven't figured out a way to get full duplex on SO-50. Are there any dual-band handhelds that can receive SO-50?
