Hallo,

I came across this antenna and it made me interested to learn more....I
figure its a folded diapole? is this correct and is it a radio antenna
or a tv antenna?


Kind of fuzzy picture but...

Looks like it's a opened up folded dipole. Commonly
refered to as a butterfly antenna. Two of them together
with one set turns 90 degrees is called a turnstile or
a clover leaf. Typically used as an FM transmitting
antenna.
