Default TH3 vs A3S

I am thinking it may finally be time to replace my old tribander. Based
on size, weight, mast size and power handling capability, I found two
popular models that are good candidates. Looking for comments and
comparisons between the HyGain TH3MK4 and the Cushcraft A3s.

I owned the A4S for about 7 years and it was a replacement for my old
TH3..
I loved the A4!!! Was much better on bandwidth and I got great signal
reports.
Its bigger and more sturdy than the A3. Also costs more but its one
awesome
antenna. When I get my new home it'll be my antenna of choice for a
triband.
Also, the first in a series for Cushcrafts antenna design software
they bought back then
The A4 and A3 were designed on their very expensive program.
