I prefer Alpha Delta. They have one model that covers all frequencies and is rated for 200 watts. They normally have UHF connectors; you have to pay $5 more for N connectors. They're about $50 new. I get mine from Universal Radio, HRO, or AES.
The commercial site where my 900 MHz repeater is, has a bunch of PolyPhasers, so I bought one too. For that band, it's only good for 50 watts, and I don't think they had one rated for more power. So I had to replace it with an Alpha Delta; I should have just bought that the first time.
