That Allertor looks pretty neat like that. I'm curious to know if it still works.

I think there is discussion of the allertors way back in the low mounted sirens thread at which time IIRC they still worked.

The Allertor is located
here, on the west end of town.

I wish Ian's links weren't dead to that Thunderbolt with a submersible well pump motor strapped on top...

I'm going to take a shot in the dark and say it probably isn't used. It you look down the road at the fire department, there is an STH-10 sitting high and mighty over the station.

It's possible, but if my theory is correct I don't think the Allertor would be used for tornado warnings at all, as the STH-10 almost certainly is. The control boxes look rather modern for an inactive siren as well.
Perhaps next time I pass through the area I'll try to get in touch with the local co-op and find out for certain if it's in use (or tested).

Sounds very interesting! Any pictures or links to it?
Edit : Pardon me if this is bumped.

It was posted in another thread, IIRC. I want to say it was somewhere in New York (likely on Long Island).
