That would be a Scream Master siren.

That's surely an appropriate name! I tried to tie it in with the list of sirens in the Los Angeles area but couldn't find it; does anybody in this area know if this was part of the main CD siren network? I know that there was a large aircraft manufacturer in Pico Rivera which is very close to this location.

It more than likely would've been an LA siren back in the day. LA had a huge system: Tbolts, 500s, SD-10s, Model 5s, HOR Siro-Drones, Chryslers even! And now Scream Masters it seems. A majority of the old LA sirens are still up as well. If you want to have a gander, here is my map of all the LA sirens I have been able to locate:

Thank you for the information; I'll check out your link.

I've been interested in this Cold War stuff since I was a kid, and I well remember air raid shelters, routine testing of the sirens, and the Cuba missile crisis. Actually, there is a manufacturer just down the street from where I work in Montebello which _still_ manufactures bomb shelters. Occasionally I see newly manufactured ones out in their parking lot, ready for delivery to their new owners.

According to Georgia tech, these are campus alert sirens. But what model are they? This one is on top of the Crecine Apts, one of 7 listed locations.

Aren't they those planar technology speaker arrays which I forget the name of?

Tyco ClearWarning system. That makes three of these systems in the state of Georgia with the now decommissioned system in Ft. Benning and the recently installed system in Ft. Gorden.

I was told they were ADT Clearvoice.
