It appears that the consensus of the multitude is to use stacked
monobanders rather than tribanders if you have the tower real estate and
want max performance. I will have two rotating towers, so 3 x 10 & 2 x 40
go on one and 3 stacks of 15 and 20 on the other. I was going to use HyGain
XX5CA's as the mono's but am I now to understand that manufacturing of
these antenna has been discontinued?

If so, any recommendations for substitutes? They have got to be rugged,
lots of wind and rain and snow.
