Did the Alertronics in Sarnia sound like any of these?

I also have an audio recording of a dual-tone AL-4000 from Amarillo. It sorta struck me as sounding similar to the 6000Rs in Sarnia.

Apparently they sounded like that, I have been trying to dig up anything I can find about this system too. Almost found nothing out of it which is unfortunate.

I don't own a siren yet.

In response to my last post, here is the recording of the Amarillo AL-4000.

Sorry for the bump, but a recording does exist of Sarnia's Alertronics. They performed a very similar "long pulse" tone that the ATI units in town use. This was recorded in 1996, and taken from a Sunoco safety video:

Heh, would've been neat if they instead used that on the ATIs rather than the standard dull ATI beep.
