Hi there

Please could you help me identify this antenna with the following
dimensions ?
There are three sections, but it would appear that there were four
sections as the end section (of what remains), is slit allowing for
another section to slide into it and be clamped. (Let's call this
"missing" section 1).
I would guess and say that this missing section would be about 1850mm and
10mm in diameter. (I calculate this by using an average of the three
remaining sections). 
Section two is 1545mm long and 12mm in diameter.
Section three is 1150mm long and 15mm in diameter.
Section four is 935mm long and 17mm in diameter, and attached to this
section is a loading coil 150 long by 45mm in diameter.
The entire antenna is made of high quality Stainless Steel (including the
loading coil housing section), with exception of the top of the loading
coil which appears to be made from a nylon / non inductive plastic
insulation.
The antenna is end-fed, and the bottom ring / sleeve of the loading coil
has three tapped holes 6mm in diameter @ 90ø to the bottom sleeve. I would
imagine these holes are provided to support radials.

Your help / thoughts would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Regards

PS if you want, I can take a digi pic of the sections, and 7Plus it here.
