It is a puzzle - never seen one like it.
Suspect it could be some sort of vertical whip with an active preamp below.
It will do what it does.

I would probably put it on a non conducting pole, fed by coax with some kind of choke in the feed cable. (Noise isolation from below)

If it is good - enjoy. If not then increment last letter X>Y.

Please let us know how you get on.
