Re: UPDATED (SIREN EXISTS): The Whelen WS-2500

I hate to bump this topic, but back in November I took a trip to Indian Cave to go ahead and attempt to identify some of the sirens. No luck. Most, if not all, of the older sirens have been long since removed and replaced by newer 2900 sirens. As for the two or three supposed WS-2500 locations, I a...

Re: UPDATED (SIREN EXISTS): The Whelen WS-2500

I was looking along the Z highway since the one old street view outside Dar Pro didn’t reveal anything but power poles and came across this weird looking shadow next to a power pole and I’m not sure what it could be, possibly the siren in question?

Re: Prison siren systems?

If jails count as prisons then the Pinellas County Jail in FL has an ex-St. Petersburg, FL 1959 Thunderbolt 1000A atop one of the main buildings in the facility. You can see a video of it here: https://youtu.be/N63sir283Rs

I am filled with shock, I didn't know there was this one!, Though what happened to the other intake?
It looks like the street view pic is old, before the siren got restored. It looks much newer in the video.

Re: Florida Siren Map?

There's a FS Modulator at a PHSC campus in New Port Richey. I believe it's a 4016 last I recall but I could be wrong. https://goo.gl/maps/ZdHeVdfE1jnUj5fM9 Inactive Thunderbolt on top of the St. Pete Municipal Services building (more info on it somewhere on this forum). https://goo.gl/maps/zRCVPFok2...

Re: Rare alertronic 5000 photo.

Hopefully not too big of a bump. I'm very interested in rare sirens, so I thought I'd do some digging on this 5000 unit. Based on the Tuscaloosa inference I may have found where this unit was located (assuming it wasn't faked). https://i.imgur.com/pKBoZ2Z.png Here you can see the Mansard roof on the...

Non-360 Quadrens?

First post on this forum! I had a question regarding ACA Quadrens. Obviously there's the well known 360 degree Quadren in Mt. Prospect, but I was wondering if there were any documented non-360 degree Quadrens out in the wild? Not sure how prevalent Quadrens were, especially ones that utilized their ...
