Yeah, you can use an FC on a electronic siren. FC's also have tone generators which could be fed through an amp.

Yeah, I didn't know it either until I started messing with my FC.

Anybody else notice how much that 508 is leaning?

It does seem to be a little, when I saw it from a few different angles it looked pretty straight to me. It may have been my fault too, I was using a cell phone camera to take the pic.

508s and 2001s I guess I don't mind 508s but I wish they would just keep the old sirens. They are way better.

I agree. Whelens are a thousand times more reliable than 2001s.

The Whelens were pushing 20 plus years of age man! They were failing activations IIRC. Also don't judge rereliability on the brand and model. It's more complicated then you think. They could have FPUed them, but why do that when there are more advanced and louder sirens with more range to choose from?
