This is a TH3. In fact, this is an original TH3. How original? This was
made or designed by a guy in Duncan, Oklahoma...who was purchaced by
Hygain. This beam is late 50s or early 60s vintage. I know. I had one
for years. I retrapped the antenna with the new "Thunderbird" traps from
Hygain after fritzing wit the thing for several years. Worked FB for
years. Got a TH6DXX and put the TH3 on the small tower. Sold it for $100
later on.
I bet if you took off the center feed on the DE there would be a couple of
headless bolts bent just to fit around the boom. Those are buggers to
reassemble.
