The fact that the TH6 has a 24 ft boom is great. The fact that it uses traps, 
in my opinion is not so great. My last two multi and beams have been trapless. 
Unlimited power with the balun being the
Limiting factor. If I had a 24 ft boom and 6 elements, I’d junk the traps and 
add 6 more thin full sized elements to have better performing beam . Another 
option would be to copy the JK Tri M. Multi element tribander with 3 
simultaneously driven elements. No traps. The antenna I use is an expanded 
version of F12 C3 called an XR5. It’s 5 bands , 10 thin full sized elements, no 
traps on the 18 ft boom. Only 2 elements per band but works well. JK has a 
newer improved version.
This just a few thoughts.
