From N0AX's and myself's tribander comparison report, measured average
gain referenced to a dipole:
TA33
20 - 1.2 dBd
15 - 2.3
10 - 1.3
C-3
20 - 3.3
15 - 4.3
10 - 2.7
The TA33 is barely better than a dipole. The C-3 (and the C-4) works
really well and thinks it's a bigger antenna. All the gory details are
available in the full report available at http://www.championradio.com.
