EOWS Siren Controller Differences?

[Vey198885]

I can't seem to figure out one thing. Some pictures show the horns of the 408 being attached to the rectangular head at the base of the horn, like on the larger EOWS, and Logan's 408, but then there are pictures of 408's with larger heads where the horns go inside the back, and are not fully sticking out.

Same. It leads me to think that the one that has horns going into the back may have been an early model?

I'd like to add that I think the yellow 408 was in Belleville, IL, but has since been replaced by a Whelen according to Street view:

Technically it was in Swansea based on that logo on the street sign, but yes. The 408 was at the corner of Smelting Works & Fullerton Roads, and as of June 2013 (latest street view imagery) the old pole that the siren was mounted on is still there as seen here.

A little off topic but, how do you post a YouTube video so that the video shows up? Im trying to post a video but I can only put the link.

You simply put the video ID between youtube bbcode tags:

Code: Select all

[youtube]<video id goes here>[/youtube]

Here is my lost EOWS 612 video from 2011 when it still had SiraTone controls.
Finally found out how to do it!
