Interestingly enough you can order some Sentry sirens with custom port ratios. This 10V has 16 ports.

It should also be mentioned that most of these sirens can be ordered with custom ratios. A few 16-port 5V's and even a 10V have been found in the wild. So theoretically any siren can have either 8, 16, or have both choppers be the same.

Also, Huntsville, AL has a 40V1T, with 2 10-port rotors. Theoretically, one could be ordered with 2 15-port rotors as well.

16V1T - 8/8
Also are you sure the 16V1T is 8/8? because i've heard a 8/8 port sterling and it sounds nothing like the 16V

Sterlings were never 8/8 port. They only had 8 port Model "K" sirens.
The dual rotor Sterlings were either 8/16, 16/16, and I think 12/12 for the Little Giant.
Unless you custom ordered it to be 8/8, which I think no sterling vertical like that exists.

all 16V1T/s are 8/8 port, hence the "1T" in the name. If it were to be 8/16, then it would be a 16V2T. 16V's sound different than a standard 8-port siren because these use two motors that, more often than not, spin at different speeds which creates dissonance.
