Dave,
It it is sticking up vertically from the plane, it is most likely a COM antenna, since VOR antenna's are horizontally polarized and COM's are vertically polarized.
 
FWIW,

Subject: [FlyRotary] What about this antenna.

This is a picture of the antenna on the wreckage of a MiG-29 that is lying around our base.  I am trying to "acquire" it, thinking that it is a VOR antenna and would make a neat addition to N4VY.  I will not be easy for it to end up in my possession, so not worth it if it is not going to work....  anyone with more experience?
