One thing I was told was the Hy-Gain towers only had three bolt holes per
leg and the one in question has five, so does the LM470.  In the HG-70HD PDF
manual I found on line it also shows three bolt hols per leg.  I was also
told the Hy-Gain did not have the tabs at the 8' mark for the tilt over
base, the one in question does?  So its seems to have characteristics of
both the Hy-Gian and Tri-Ex.
