I thought so. You put it there? Good job. It looks like it had a good time there. Why'd they take it down?

Because they replaced it with a T-128. :wink:

Edit, the Cyclone is a fun siren. If I remember right there were 40 and 50hp models. I like the 40 as it has a more long-winded windup which is more exciting -- you can savor it.

Dodgeville, WI tests their dual tone banshees and Cyclones daily, though the Cyclone only growls. It comes to life full cycle bi-monthly though.

NEILSVILLE, WI?
Link does not work. Thought this might/might not help you, Ben. Is it still somewhere?

Nice pic there, Ben. I'll probably blow 12 minutes of my life and try to contact them about it. :P

It looks a bit different form the SuperBanshee I saw in Johnson Creek, WI.

I'll be uploading a few more pictures I took last week soon. They include a Sentry Siren, and, a few other sirens, too.

Does anyone know what the port ratio on the three-tone Soundmaster is?

I believe Buggsr, or someone else, explained it away as being basically a 3 signal SoundMaster....


If it WAS 3 chopper wheels, then, I'd presume it to be 8/10/12 port intervals.

THIS IS ONLY A GUESS, THOUGH.

NO, there are not 3 choppers. The "3-Tone" refers to the number of signals it produces (alert, attack, Hi-lo).

It is a Dual-toned siren. Port ratio is 8/12.

Oh, so it was something like a 3T22 then? Thanks.
