No that is a Fyr-Fytr, one of the first electronic sirens ever made.

The identity of these sirens have bugged me every time I pass them. They are located in Grinnell, Iowa in Poweshiek County.

I'm sorry for the link, I don't know how to upload pictures onto the forum.

The first siren is a Sentry 10V2T. It's a dual tone 8/16 port siren.
The second siren is VERY rare, I believe it's some kind of SoundMaster? Very few exist (as far as I know).

Great finds!!

Wow, thank you for that, those sirens, now demystified, have plagued me for a while. I am trying to get a recording of the rotating Soundmaster.

The fire siren at the Back Creek Valley Fire Department in Glengary, WV (Berkeley County).... not really sure what this is but it is different to say the least. Looks like some creative engineering by the fire department to me!! LOL

Hey Dave it looks like one of those GSC sirens with the Model 5/7 on the inside and a custom housing on the outside.
