Stroudsburg, PA's "T-121" is not a T-121 at all- It's an EOWS 115. https://www.google.com/maps/@40.9870919 ... 384!8i8192
Unless the T-121 replaced the EOWS.
Thank you for that. The streetview must have been recently updated. The 2018 streetview made it look like it was a T-121.
Actually, looking at that from a different angle...
How in god's name did I get that wrong?

This map looks great. Just an FYI: the 5A on the Oakmont Fire Department has been replaced with a 2 as of August of 2017. I just noticed this on Street View.

I was looking around Bedford, PA to generally check out the town because I'm planning to do some historic architecture photography downtown there, and I found two sirens:

https://goo.gl/maps/qpz958JfEUiw4Hf3A - FS Model 2
https://goo.gl/maps/Y7pZUgn2aa7kpt6D7 - Darley Champion 8/8

Both of these were revealed by relatively new street view imagery so I don't think they've been documented anywhere yet. I noticed they're not on your map.

EDIT: I was in Bedford today and both sirens went off. Yes, they are both active as fire sirens. Here is a video I recorded from the courthouse square.

Thanks for the links, but I did notice you're missing some locations. For starters, in York there was a Mobil Directo BN44G on top of the Yorktowne Hotel on Duke St, not too far away from the old location of the super sirex. While the BN44G was removed in 2007, it was donated to the York County History Center just down the street, and if I'm not mistaken, they refurbished it. I'll link a photo of it when it was still mounted on the hotel. Next on the list is the Beaver Valley Nuclear System. Some interesting ones I found on the list that aren't on your map are a very tall mounted hornless ACA Allertor 125 (obviously inactive) at 353 US-30 in Clinton, PA, along with it's replacement Equinox just west down the road at 332 US-30 in Clinton, PA. Next is a cluster of 3 sirens. Number one is yet another inactive tall mounted ACA Allertor 125 at 1199 Taylor Ave in Monica, PA. Right next to the Allertor is a Sterling M-10. I'm not sure if the M-10 is active or not. If I had to guess, it's an old fire siren or something. And the third is actually down the street at 1298 Taylor Ave. It's an Equinox that replaced the Allertor. There looks like there's more to the Beaver Valley system your missing, but I'm going to give you a link to the map of they're system so you can figure out what else is all missing. Otherwise thank you for the map.

I'm not updating the map anymore, but feel free to give locations that I can put on the USA siren map. I will still add removed locations to this map.
EDIT: I'm going to keep updating the map until the USA siren map is complete and released. Thanks for the locations, guys!

Hello all.
I have this map to share with you all.
Me, Luke and sirens are cool have made this map of PA.
It is still a WIP, we are finishing up power plants such as Three Mile Island and Beaver Valley and checking some fire stations.
I started in around August, as you can see we have come very far.
This was quite a pain in the arse lol.

There's your link.
Would you be willing to share the points for the Susquehanna system with me? If so, you can send them to me in a pm or email. Thank you!
I record sirens when I have nothing else better to do.

There's an entire map on the siren board somewhere. You can find it by searching Susquehanna or something like that.
