If they were in Indiana they would be mine. He says about 50' up but not a PD, FD, or DOT Garage like I thought its a mine site.

The first one looks like cb. I have one but not where I am right now.

The 3rd looks like an Antron 99 CK that’s missing the top element.

What I see is possibly a folded dipole for Low VHF and perhaps a Phelps or Moto Station Master. Only two antennas in the link I tried to post.

The first one is a DB201 low band antenna. looks like its cut for lower portion of band somewhere in the 30-35 mhz range....
2nd one looks like a Stationmaster

Honestly don’t think the eBay one is a db201. The one I have, the main element (radiator) is double to three times longer. The one I have kicked ass on cb back in the day.

A low band DB201 and a UHF Phelps Dodge station master.

Those poles looks like railroad ?

It is a DB201 and the photos look like very low frequency split

Db201 shows radiator has a larger diameter going up before folding and coming back down.

Hard to tell from the pic but not seeing that on this one.



In any event, the one I have has a rather long radiator and since these can be cut down, wonder how it would do cut for Airband.

Appears both are cut for the mid 40's MHz. The light is something like 15" tall.

With over 50 fire houses here that have/had lowband DB201's cut to 33.7 MHz.... that photo is most assuredly a DB201 cut for the lower portion of low band. There looks to be a missing isolator about half way down that would keep the small diameter piece away from the large diameter piece. The one I have in my garage that was a spare, the large diameter rod is only about 2 times larger than the small diameter rod. And the ground radials taper to a thinner diameter and bend like the dickens with ice on them...
