Not sure when or how I came across this, but I found it on my computer. This is Farmland's Fedelcode before the tower fell. Notice it has more louvers than most model 20's.

I thought this was a 3T22 with a custom housing, not a Fedelcode. I saw pics after it toppled clearly showing a T22 chopper/motor assembly.

If I am not mistaken, these sirens had a General Electric motor. In my 5th grade year, the student teacher in my class was from Oregon. Back home his father owned a electric repair shop, and they actually rebuilt the motor on one of these sirens. What stuck in my mind was that it was manufactured by Federal, and had five louvers. Until I saw the Farmland Fedelcode, I thought he was mistaken, because his description didn't sound like a Model 2 or 5. The siren was placed back in-service, but I have no idea if it's still there or not.
