As far as I know, the consensus seems to be that there isn't too much
difference in performance between the TH-7 and the KT34XA, in spite of
the fact the the KT34XA has a longer boom.  Perhaps others are
aware of evidence to the contrary, though.  One clear difference is
that it takes a lot longer to assemble the KT34XA from scratch, because
you have to assemble all the tuning stubs.  That may not be a problem
if you can leave the elements partly assembled between field days.   Either
would certainly be durable enough for your purposes.
