[TowerTalk] A3 Traps

[Bill Carpenter]

I lost my tower and Cushcraft A3 in an ice storm a couple of weeks ago.  The beam is trashed but I think the traps all survived OK.  Is there a market for good used traps?  I need to offset the insurance deductible to purchase a new antenna.
On that note, I'm considering the Hy-Gain TH3 MK4 instead of the A3.  I do have a TH3JR that is a good antenna - is the TH3 MK4 better than the A#?
