I am putting together a modest contest station on North Caicos ( VP5 ). 
The tower will be 60 feet with a Tri-bander just above  and the Cushcraft 2
ele 40 10 ft above that.
(Cushcraft XM240 at 70 ft).  

The question is what tribander?? I used a TH-7dx for years and loved it...I
also think the new Cushcraft X-9 looks like a real winner... I would be
very interested in any comments.  Although I am using several KLM antennas
at the home QTH I have decided against the KT34XA-- just too many
mechanical connections... WARC is not important since no contests... 

What say?? Which would you install at 60ft right next to the beach with a
15MPH wind blowing all the time??

P.S.  This is another rental and will be ready early Spring... XYL APPROVED
for a family vacation ...
