It's pronounced Marc, BTW.

This is a pretty good forum. Folks here are easy to get along with, for the most part. There are some other forums out there that would absolutely make you wish you had never heard of the forum if you hijacked an existing thread on your very first post. Here's a friendly suggestion: instead of coming into a thread about a specific mobile radio to ask an off-topic question, how about starting a thread with a title like "Repeater-Capable Portable Radios" and then ask your question there? That is why you got a one-word answer. And I can guarantee that one-word answer was more polite than the response such a post would get on some forums. Welcome to the forum.

Quoting myself because I was just reading back over this thread and thought an update to this statement might be in order. I searched the web and found the manufacturer's data for the dual band Yagi I have. It indicates coverage of the 902-928 (and beyond) band. Because I didn't have a way to check the match on 900, I bought a Bird 43 wattmeter and a Coaxial Dynamics 400-1000 MHz (at 50 watts) slug. As it turns out, that Yagi is a near-perfect match.
