David, if the tribander used a driven element that was insulated from the 
boom, the balun was
probably a HyGain BN-86.  I used to use one on a TH3-jr many years ago.

It was a rectangular box that clamped to the boom with a U-bolt, and  had an 
SO-239 on one end.  The  wires that connected to the antenna elements were 
attached to 1/4x20 bolts on feed-thrus that were fastened to the sides of 
the box,  near the end farthes from the coax connector.

HRO has the present version for $79.95.
