I would highly recommend the upgrade kit.  The KT34 was well thought of
years ago but did not hold up well when compared to some of the newer
antennas.  I think the upgrade took care of that problem.

At least one other color was also manufactured...Blue.
 
I made this suggestion to the original poster off reflector....buy the  
upgrade from M2 for this antenna.  That way you don't have to deal with the

"broken donut" problem or any of the other mechanical problems inherent in
this 
antenna.  It is a good antenna but it does have flaws and these are
addressed by 
the M2 upgrades.
