HFTA may have issues.  However, 139/69 stack is not close  spaced.  It is 
approximately one wavelength.
 
I am a firm believer in BV's HFTA and have used it to design both  of my 
last two stations.  And, if the sale of my house goes through, I'll  use it on 
my next place.

What  values did you get using HFTA.  HFTA has some issues with very 
close  spaced stacks.  The numbers are wrong.
