I have used a 402CD and KT-34XA since the early 1980's.  There is slight SWR 
change on 15 on the KT-34XA.  The 402CD is mounted 9 feet above the KT-34XA.

I have not attempted changing to a Moxon version but there is much more 
interaction between the XM240 and the KT-34XA.  The KT-36XA loads the boom 
so the boom becomes resonant on 40.  I plan to upgrade using the 
modification kit but use the 34XA boom to element mounts to avoid the 
problem.
