[Antennas] Help identifying some Cushcraft items

Mon Oct 4 19:24:04 EDT 2010

I recently acquired some Cushcraft pieces and I am unsure of their original 
intended use. I suspect they have been used as verticals or parts of verticals 
since two of them have what appear to be guy wires attached. That said, they 
look like they might have originally been half of a driven element of a dipole 
or yagi. I put three pictures of them at the website below. Each one has two 
SO-239 connectors. The center conductor of one of connector goes to the element 
and with the ground connected to an aluminum housing that's insulated from the 
element. The second SO-239 also has it's ground connected to the aluminum 
housing but the center conductor goes nowhere.
Any info will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and 73,
