Help needed to identify a light weight 3 element beam obtained from an estate - 
no documentation - no ID on parts

Boom 13' 2" of 1.5" Aluminum tubing
6 traps 12" long @ 2 per element as follows:

_________38"__.5"OD_______________TRAP_________28"__.75"OD_________ to center 
section>    Reflector???

_________38"__.5"OD_______________TRAP________26"__.75"OD_________ to center 
section>  Driven???

_________35"__.5"OD_______________TRAP_____19.5"__.75"OD_________ to center 
section>   Director???



The 3 Center sections are odd:

2 are split with a pair of center terminals, Length = 12' 11" .875"OD
1 is solid Length = 12' 10" .875"OD
There is an 80"  crossover phasing line of  .375"OD tubing


Questions: Manufacturer's identity and model?
Is the phasing between the driven and director or driven to reflector?

TIA and 73
