G'day all,

I am trying to determine what radio/radar system employed the antennas 
shown
on this B-24.

http://www.b24bestweb.com/milkrun.htm

Was this a yagi antenna with the elements mounted on insulated rods as 
only
one element appears to be fed? Or was it some sort of end-fire antenna?

Cheers
