Just received approval from our zoning board to increase tower height from 40 
to 65 ft according to new statute in Pennsylvania. We plan to replace our 433HD 
with a TX455, which I am told will swap out using the same base. However it is 
rated at 18 square feet and current yagi (Mosley Pro96)  is 24 square feet so I 
am looking for a lighter antenna. Prefer 4 elements on 20 and above and 3 
elements on 40.

 

What do you suggest?

 

Any experience upgrading these towers in this way?
