San Mateo CA EOWS 1212's

Sun May 21, 2023 8:41 am

OK, found a news piece that San Mateo CA bought at least 2 EOWS 1212's in 1987:

The news article does not say where the other 4 were to be located. I can't find the one by the Library. Confirmed one of them:

I don’t think that’s a good location to put a control box…
