The Siren Board

Welcome, Jonas.

Fascinating!

I look forward to seeing your photo.

Do you have the impression that the siren is home-made?

Any idea if it is still used or operable?

Thank you

Ya'll ready for this---haha



There it is.

Thank you Jonas and thank you Matt for posting the photo.

Why the "haha"?

Homemade?

Wish it were closer and more detailed.
Looks like the antenna goes right through the funnel/reflector
but it is really behind the unit.

Interesting!

Yall ready for this is a country boys last words....as is "Hey yall, watch this!" or "Yall check THIS out"

Siren looks pretty interesting, I'd like to hear it fire off one time.

It looks like a Decot model, though the very bottom portion looks too skinny to be the motor. That citation might be an illusion, maybe. Very cool siren.

Your pictures must be much better resolution than mine.
I cannot see much detail. (dial-up on Dell laptop)
Could the motor be above (in) the funnel?

What does that mean?

What I am saying is that all of the factors visible in the picture that lead me to believe that the motor is not at the bottom might be wrong.

Do my pictures have a better resolution than yours? I do not know.
For what I see of the bottom portion, the motor must be above the rotor. However, from what I generally see of the siren is that it looks like a Decot model, so there is a good chance of the motor being below the rotor.

That is mostlikely a Codewell (Gamewell) or Cosgrave siren with stacked rotors, but like all the ads I've seen , only one motor. The rotors probably have the same number of ports, and it is hard to tell whether these are stacked rotor assemblies or just one tall rotor banded by two slotted retainer rings. Here are ads for each that I swiped from eBay:

Wow! Daniel.

That is absolutely fantastic!

I can't help the big smile on my face in fascination.

Thank you,

Well it looks like we've answered the initial question of this post - 'Has anyone ever made triple-toned sirens?' It appears the answer is yes - in the UK (see under the post 'Hi There - UK Siren Guy!!' - I mistakenly assumed it was a four-tone siren I remembered seeing as it has four rotors).
