Something I have noticed on certain BATUS vehicles ... an item that resembles a witch's hat (or a small traffic cone). Presumably this is some type of antenna, but what exactly? Also, is its use limited to specific types of vehicle?

I imagine it's an antenna for the AWES system, which includes vehicle tracking

It is indeed part of the AWES system
