On the air, the OB9-5 performs so much better than the TH7DX - that is my 
feeling albeit bit subjective - It seems to have  much lower angle of radiation.

Your "feeling" about angle of radiation is WRONG -- angle of radiation of a horizontal antenna is determined entirely by mounting height and your terrain. Any difference in performance is the result of efficiency and the antenna's design. Your other comments make sense. :)
