Re: Lowest mounted Siren in US
There's also a Sterling mounted not too far away.

Re: Lowest mounted Siren in US
Here's a relatively low Whelen atop a grocery-store-turned-maintenance-building on the campus of Christopher Newport University in Newport News, VA.
On my map. (Check Street View from Sweetbriar Drive to see the siren this replaced.)

Don't wait. Take a siren photo today.

Re: Lowest mounted Siren in US
Not the lowest mounted siren in the US, but here is a fairly low mounted Whelen in Columbus, Ohio that is not far from an inactive Thunderbolt 1000AT: http://goo.gl/maps/BlqtW. For those who want to know "where is the Thunderbolt?", here it is: http://goo.gl/maps/o7Tdn.

Re: Lowest mounted Siren in US
The lowest mounted siren I've seen is a federal thunderbolt 1000T at the UW WhiteWater campus. It's sitting on a small hill and its fenced in with barbed wire.

When did you see that? I thought Whitewater only had STH-10s, and I've seen one near the west edge of campus.Mark360T wrote:The lowest mounted siren I've seen is a federal thunderbolt 1000T at the UW WhiteWater campus. It's sitting on a small hill and its fenced in with barbed wire.

Re: Lowest mounted Siren in US
It's off of Schwager Drive on the NW side of the campus, seen here. It's also a Series B (offset rotator), equipped with a newer Federal Controller so it's definitely on the system. Whitewater also has five Federal STH-10s (1, 2, 3, 4, 5), one W.S. Darley STH-10 on city hall, and a Federal Model 5 (painted a dark green color) north of the Thunderbolt on North Tratt Street.BadgerSiren wrote:When did you see that?

Re: Lowest mounted Siren in US
When was that pic taken of the thunderbolt? About two weeks ago I went past it when I helped move my girlfriend in for her second year the Tbolt is a lot closer to the road than that pic and its not on a pole at all either

Well, I guess we know what they used to have!
Here is a 2nd Gen. 2001-SRN in Richwood, KY. It is hard to make it out on Google Maps, but it is there.
