Manufacturer, of course, is unknown.  No markings, but it does not look
home-built.  By the mounting hardware, it looks like it was part of some
sort of stacked array.

Hi Greg, KO6TH

If your antenna is from Tonna it must be 3,07 meters long.

Tonna make two models one for DX and SAT and the other one for ATV
By the way the gain is 20 dB isotropic.

20635  35 ELEMENTI 1260/1300 MHz dx,sat 20 dB 3,07 meters long

20636  35 ELEMENTI 1250/1260 MHz ATV 20 dB 3,07 meters long
