I'm not exactly sure, but I know that it did go out of production. It was really just an Eclipse 8 with no horns. That's all I know.

Careful not to say things you don't know to be true.
Its not being advertised, but its impossible for it to have "gone out of production." Make what was the Eclipse-NH and put horns on it. Voila. Eclipse-8. To take the Eclipse-NH out of production would mean you discontinued the Eclipse.

Sorry.

I thought it might of been taken out of production but I'm really not sure. You're right, that would've meant that they would have to take the whole Eclipse series out of production. Once again, sorry.

Looks funny without the horns though.

Weren't they advertised as Dual toned sirens at some point? That is what I heard

Federal streamlined their product lineup (as most manufacturers do) and just quit offering the hornless eclipse.
So now if you buy an eclipse it's going to have horns on it, whether you like it or not.

maybe it was a special model for the state of New Hampshire.
Yes, it mean "no horns." Safe bet is that they had very few orders for it, and decided it wasn't worth offering it as a standard configuration. Though if you wanted to buy a bunch of sirens at once, they'd still happily quote you for 100 "Eclipse-NH" sirens.

It's still available. All you have to do is order a standard Eclipse siren, and when you receive it, just remove the horns and you have an Eclipse-NH siren.
