I'm trying to find out what sort of 2-element tribander (10-15-20m) I 
have.  I bought it used about used about 20 years ago and just dug it 
out of the garage.

I  always 'thought' it was a HYgain, but I'm not sure of that.  I looked 
around the Internet and found an instruction sheet that is cc 1962 for a 
HYgain TH-2.  However my beam may be an older version of that or...  
something entirely different.

Mine has 8 traps.  The elements are mounted to the boom with nicely made 
parts which look to me to be cast.  One of these castings has an SO239 
mounted on it.

The boom appears to be made in two pieces and that seems strange to me 
because it is quite short.  I don't see how to join the boom pieces, 
although one end of each piece has been made 'out of round' so those 
ends of each boom piece must fit together.  Maybe there is a missing 
piece to joint the two boom pieces to a mast.

Can someone in the list suggest what I might have and the best way to 
get an instruction sheet or manual for it?

John,  WoGN
