I would always prefer trap yagis over such installations:

And I don´t buy your "they can easily be outperformed"
I never found a performance difference between Fritzel FB-33, Mosley CL-33
and Cushcraft A3S either.

Fact is a simple F-12 C3, with only 2 els per band will out do most trapped
yagis. trapped yagis provided 3 bands..and 5 bands
with later models..which is a lot more bands than any 204BA. Trapped yagis
provide for several bands with just one yagi.
These days you can get 6 bands with one ant..and no traps. F12 5BA for
example. Or the 40-10m f-12 ants. or any of the
optibeam yagis. IMO, it would really be silly to spend $$ on trapped
yagis in 2015, esp when they can easily be out performed.
