Correct. The antennas were nicknamed "Hirschgeweih", which means "deer antler". The correct name was Lichtenstein radar. See here:

Some other nice photos of this aircraft can be found here:

Thanks, I was looking to see what "mark" of Lichtenstein this was. as well.
SC , SN2 ?

Lichtenstein FuG 220 SN-2C in this case. SN-2D can be distinguished by
the tilted aerials at 45 degrees.
