Could this antenna be used for shortwave recieving

It depends on what shortwave bands you want to listen to. The frequency coverage is listed as 25-2000MHz so by design it would work best on the 2 meter through 11 meter bands but it should receive the lower frequencies as well, just not as efficiently as a longer antenna. If you can give it a good ground plane that will help, i.e. mount it on the largest sheet of metal you have available.

What is the size of this ?

It's 25 in. tall, base is 4 1/2 in. dia and about 10ft of cable, ending in a BNC plug.

I have an old analogue yupiteru mvt 7100 and have just tried this aerial but can pick up nothing. is analogue totally defunct now?

Don't think so because in addition to my Bearcat I have a very old analogue scanner that still works albeit very slowly when it comes to the scanning.

If I use an extension lead from this aerial to my scanner, will I need an adapter between aerial & extension lead?

This aerial terminates with a BNC plug so you would need an adapter between the BNC plug and whatever connector you have on the end of your extension. So what you need is an adapter that has a BNC female on one end and on the other end a connector that mates up to your extension lead.
