I won a 4/5 Port Thunderbolt!

Very happy right now. It was on top of a school in Minneapolis, MN called Field and was taken down in 2014. Pictures coming soon.

Aww, I wish I would have seen this. That is within driving distance and that would have been affordable for me. Congrats on your score though. Do you know what kind of blower it has?

I saw that auction on the bay about 2 days ago, thought it was only a single-tone 1000. Congrats!
Oh, and I found a video of your new siren when it was still in service: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X35JJrVX_lg

Pretty sure it's a 6M A1 blower. All of Minneapolis's Thunderbolts had them. When I get it I will take some pictures of it.

Thank you very much! It fooled me too, like the other Thunderbolt on eBay for $6,000 (Jeez...) says it's a 1000 but there's actually a YouTube video on it and it's clearly a 1000T 5/6 port.

Congrats, and welcome to the club. I really need to get working on mine again. I have all the components for what I want to do for my setup, just need the time and money to make the actual final product happen.
