 I just purchased this long pole receiver off of eBay for $99 .   Can anyone tell me the maker? The profile looks a little different from the ones that I am familiar with. That does not look like the original Cap.

 Distinctive features;

The bell portion of the  receiver is a separate piece.

There is a seam on the top cap

The top cap has two metal rivets? or possibly broken off cord restraints.  Not sure why there'd be two.

The cap is not correct

Here is a side by side comparison with a Viaduct long pole.  The Viaduct cap fits the new long pole but is not deep enough to cover the threaded area. As you can see the threaded area of the mystery candlestick (lrft) is wider than the Viaduct (right).
