ARCHIVED: Mystery Sirens (2008-3/2021)

I saw this today over a firehouse in Baxter Springs, Kansas. No idea what it could be!

I came across that siren while hunting a while back, and I have no clue what it might be either.

Could be a Denver of some sort because I've seen some Denver's with that type of cover over the top.

It has Sterling intake horns on it. I wouldn't be surprised if it's an M5

The motor housing seems very tall to me, but those ports are screaming Sterling at me...

Looks to be some kind of 4004 redux??

Looks like someone took two whelen 400Xs and mounted them on a pole, that's weird

Does anyone know if it is a rare model of something, not seen much like the 4-directional hornet?

4 directional hornet?

That's just 2 Whelen 4004s, nothing special.

It is sort of not special but it is an odd configuration, I have been meaning to share this with the board for a number of years but I kept forgetting. I was going to message the department to see what the idea was behind mounting 2 Whelen 4004 heads in this fashion (they are non-rotational as you can see) but figured they wouldn't know, I am going to assume it was just for directional coverage... like a directional 4008. I am guessing they are hooked up to 1 single panel as they can support up to 8 drivers (again as seen in the 4008), still an interesting mount though!!
