Due to the eirp limits at 900 (36dB total) your antenna choice really should
take into account the radio gain first.....
Having said that, a lot of people put in the high gain 900 omni antennas and
don't seem to have much trouble with them.
I agree with the sector idea though.
The 900 that I'm using now is trango. They have almost got the full eirp
built right in to the radio/antenna system as it comes from the factory.
The down side is that it takes 6 ap's to cover 360*. That can get spendy.
Especially if you pay rent per antenna.
As a rule, we are sectorizing more and more sites these days. Even the ones
out in the sticks. There are too many other users out there showing up all
of the time.

Hello Brian,
No more then 8db in my playbook anymore. And horz. if at all possible.
Sectors on 900 is the best way to go too.
I got an Antel 11db with downtilt that I would sell if you really want a
vertical omni. Heavy duty antenna.
