I've had tribanders on my roofs for many years, as well as tribanders and
monobanders on towers both here and in Europe. Over the last few years,
I've used KLM KT-34A, TH-6, A3S, A4S, TH-7, and TH-11. The KLM KT-34A is a
great antenna but maintenance prone. For a roof top installation that's not
such a big order. I routinely change my tribanders out here at my present
QTH, usually taking one down for Field Day, etc. The TH-7 is large but also
a very good antenna. The TH-11 is a bit too big. My personal choice would
be the A4S. Small, works quite well, and "aesthetically XYL approved."
I've don't have any experience with a Force 12 antenna but hear great things
about them. I may try a C-4XL next year, but I really love my 402CD, it
works FB.
