Sorry to drop off topic really quick here but is the T-135AC/DC actually 135@100? On topic that Federal lion siren looks huge and... it seems to me like it's rare. Maybe a little?

No and you could have very easily gone to ASCs website and looked at the siren cut sheet and seen its 132 @ 100 ft.
Read this thread and va_nuke_pe's technical description why it's performance hasn't been majorly impacted by the db drop:

So what's happening to all of the sirens that have been taken down?

IIRC and don't quote me on this but I believe the old sirens are being removed by Fulton, due to the fact that they have contracts with a majority of the nuke plants in Northern/North Central Illinois. With that being said they are probably going straight to Fultons lot.

Well I can officially confirm now that the P-50 in Carbon Hill and the P-50 on Whitewillow Rd. north of Morris have both been replaced with new T-135s, thus there are no more P-50s in the Dresden and Braidwood systems. There still might be a P-15 northeast of Dwight, but it could be replaced too. I'll have to check that another day.

I did just that and got a corrupted mess. Almost completely illegible.

That's weird, the PDF doesn't look too nice on my desktop either, but it works just fine on my smartphone though.
