I think the Thunderbolt is whimpy compared to the Hurricane. the horn
on the Hurriane is significantly larger than a Thunderbolt horn.

Yes, they are that big. That was 2 or so years ago, when Garland took down their last 2 hurricanes. Eric Green tipped me off to it. Those horns are rather interesting because they weigh absolutely nothing.

Well, the good news is I found a faster connection to use. The bad news......
does anyone have the video in a format other than .MOV?




Not that I won't consider getting the program, but access to this connection
won't last forever.

Scratch that, everything worked out well. Thanks for the help!

They are fibreglass. Being fibreglass they shouldn't weigh more than 10-12lbs even with their dimensions.

Yep, It's rather interesting how they're made. They take a male mold(as in, one that fits inside the horn) then the resin is spread in a thin layer over it, then they take a "chop gun" and it spits little strands of fiberglass all over it. I've seen chop guns in action, and they are really cool to watch! The only bad part of restoring a fiberglass siren is repairing damage.
