Sacramento sirens

Thu Nov 19, 2015 9:21 am

While hunting up Decot details, I found a map of Sacramento's sirens. It's on page 51 here:

Interesting. Says the system is still active too.
Down to a Thunderbolt chopper, still a few goofy flashlight-siren combos, and a Model L.

Says the last Friday of the month at 11 on the sheet. Someone needs to get a video of one of these mysteries. If they still test that is.

I found one of the "Decot" sirens - it's located on P & 10th street and is partially engulfed by a mass of trees. It's impossible to see the siren's innards from street level although it looks to be in decent condition.

I'm thinking either a Defender or some sort of Hedberg.

This is pretty neat, it seems as though they have FC controllers on them.

Here's another one at a light-rail station if someone wants to take public transit out to record one:
