It's gone bye bye. :( Move the little street view guy Atlantic Lake Rd. The view is from 2014.

This whatever this is in Alva, OK is pretty low. The siren is massive too so it made me jump when it first came into view. I'm guessing some kind of HOR? Looks too big to be a Model 20 after some debate on Facebook with a few board members.

Here's a closer up:

Looking at the rotor, it looks a little HORish (lol) but I'm not for sure.

Perhaps a Decot? Looks like the later ones made. It also bears close resemblance to the mystery sirens in Sacramento(?) CA.

The thought definitely crossed my mind as well but the rotors on Decots (I thought) were pretty tall almost like a Sentry/Sterling. Plus this one looks way bigger. If it is it's gotta be a bigger model than the ones dotting California.

https://www.facebook.com/FederalSignalA ... =1&theater So I am positive they don't test it in this position... But from what little I gather from reading about it it's mounted here then lifted up via that little chain thing and sounded. Does anyone in the GA area know? Like I said from what I gather from it it's on the ground until it gets sounded but I am not sure.
