Hi, this is my first post, but I figured this would capture a bit of interest.

Shown first is a damaged P-50 located in the Memphis, TN suburbs.

It was taken down and refurbished recently. I assumed that the entire projector horn would be repaired, but it seems that they stuck with just half of it, as it seems to get the job done. As you can see, it is now shiny and yellow with an interesting screen covering the mouth of the horn. The location of the siren is N. Germantown Pkwy. @ Trinity Rd. Cordova, TN.

It looks great after a new coat of paint! The mesh screen looks very durable. It is good to see another dual tone siren looked after to continue its service.

The oscillator is missing its outside shell.
