The Sterling 2v8 at the Cleveland Town Hall in Cleveland, AL is rather low.

Here's one for you. This siren is located at a high power radio transmitter site west of Cocoa, Florida. I didn't get a good shot of the transmitter antenna field itself, but there are multiple transmitting facilities here with power up to 50,000 watts. Get into the wrong spot and you could get a really nice RF burn in a few seconds.

Yep. The transmitter site sits a long way out from any residences, and being it covers multiple acres the field proper is hard to secure. The siren audio does go far enough to make it to the fire station down the road, and that's all you need.... :)
