This is not my video, I was only browsing around.

What siren is at the very beginning?

Oh wow, that's the first Y-10 I've seen still in service since I got mine. Pretty awesome!

The stators are not equivalent in size. It appears that it has 1 8/16 port rotor/stator (the bigger one), and a smaller 16 port rotor/ stator(smaller one)! I never knew Sterlings could be configured like this!

Actually it isn't that set up, this is (as noted) a Y-10... the Y means it has a brake on it which is why the one side is wider than the other. That has a nice pitch to it though, I love the sound of a 16 port siren.. wish we had one at Lake Meade.
