As I Recall they appeared to be about a half wave length long for 
2-meters (it was a 2-meter repeater) and about that distance out from 
the tower.  It actually looked like to sets of two mounted on opposite 
sides of the tower IOW two on a common mount out about a half wave f 
from the tower. Over all it would have been about 3/4 wave tall (two 
dipoles spaced by a half wave)  ALTHOUGH My guess is they were home brew 
and fed as two pair to fill in any nulls in the pattern.  It's also been 
quite a while since I saw them.
