Richard,

Why don't you go to the web site you referenced, and click on "Ask seller
a
question", or doesn't he know? I did not read the whole thing. With the
loading coils, it might be an 11 meter antenna.

The seller does not know.

Funny, but figuring out what frequency an antenna might be for, even with
the physical and electrical parameters spelled out must be more difficult
than I imagined. I'm really surprised that after giving these details lower
down in the thread, the antenna cannot be figured. I'm gobsmacked.

You are right in the case of a simple antenna.

Loading coils and similar make a determination without actually
examining it far more difficult. You may not have provided every bit
of data required for people to VOLUNTARILY provide you with an answer.

An antenna design book might help, as would some careful testing.

You don't need to determine exactly what it is, you just need a "go/no
go" test for your frequencies of interest. Low power Xmit and an SWR
meter would help.

Happy trails,
