I guess the REAL question is, "Is there any band where the effective boom
length of the TH7 exceeds the effective boom length of the C-31XR?"

You have provided a quick answer, but the REAL question is what is the boom
length on each band?

The TH7 and C-31XR are good antennas but on 10 meters the boom length is not
24 feet or 31 feet.
