Bob,
I'm using an IC-0700 at 10 watts into a horizontal Directive Systems 45-el loop yagi fed with 23 feet of LMR-400. The yagi was resonant at 1289 MHz out of the box, but I managed to get it down a bit by manipulating the drive and reflector element. Still show a somewhat high SWR at 1269. But it works.
