Re: Post your Mystery Sirens here.
Could it be a sparton? It has the louvered sides, but the top intake is different. Calvin Mayer on YouTube has the only known model 37 that's preserved, but sparton did make other models.

Re: Post your Mystery Sirens here.
Also there seem to be some sort of electrical conduit going to it, which either could indicate that it's a got a fan inside (such as an attic fan thingy) or it's indeed a siren, but from the dimensions alone I'm not certain which one.

Re: Post your Mystery Sirens here.
that doesn't look like a siren to me... it's you're sure it is a siren, it is probably a siren housed in a roof vent, most like a model x.model 120 lover wrote: ↑Thu Jul 23, 2020 3:12 amanybody have any idea what this might be? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/ ... 182535.jpg my guess is its a model 5 with custom housing but im not sure. its disconnected and was installed in the 60's thats all i know about it

I'm just about 99.999% sure that thing is an exhaust fan.

Re: Post your Mystery Sirens here.
Doubt it's a vent. It wouldn't make much sense to direct exhaust in a single direction like that.
