I searched the forum and I didn't see this topic posted yet. If there is I am going to apologize now and I guess this can get locked.

When I went to meet up with Westgate Thunderbolt about a month ago, I found a couple of gems along the way.

If you have any sirens from Arizona feel free and post them. :D

Excellent photos! That Mod's boxes really have not held up well. Ouch!

The siren in Winkelman is actually a Whelen WPS-2705. You can tell its a 2700 series from the different, more elongated and blackened cells of which there are only five.

It's the 2750. Back then, in the last 2 digits, 0 came after the number of cells.

Did Modulators ever use the EOWS style tone generation system? That box looks identical to some 612s I have seen.

That's the MCP controller. It was the controller they used in between the ultravoice and the siratone.

What does MCP stand for?
