There is a reported vco (out of band) stab/lock
problem some 850 repeaters. Kenwood just told
me because the problem is hit and miss for out
of band (amateur) operation, they don't support
operation out of the "normal" 450 to 480 range.
I'm under the impression the vco stab problem
is a 1 in 15 to 1 in 35 production issue.
I just sold one and it programs and works
fine into the ham band. You do need the proper
and current software for the version repeater
you plan to use, there are repeater firmware
differences. The current software is ver 91D.
