I have a KT36XA in the air at a 100feet in a very windy part of
Colorado. The construction took some time but it all went together
fine and it has withstood some intense hail storms nearby tornados and
again....strong winds. The antenna plays very well on 10-20 and no SWR
problems...very broadbanded. I cannot speak to the early KT34 but this
antenna has no problems or anomalies to date.
Compared to the Skyhawk expect the longer boom of the XA to inch out a
bit more gain.
My $0.02,
Jay - KT5E
