Just for clarification about LMR900:
 
There absolutely is a coaxial cable called LMR900 made by Times Microwave  
and sold through their distributors. It is a low loss and quality cable with 
 performance approaching that of 7/8" Heliax type cables.
 
There is not a product offered called LMR900U. 
 
Cables sized from LMR600 and lower are available in the standard or the "U" 
 version. The U designator implies a stranded center conductor allowing 
more  flexibility as well as repeated flexing as in a rotor loop or crank up 
tower  service.
 
It is extremely unusual to see an amateur installation using a size larger  
than LMR600.
