It's at the Federal Signal Plant in University Park, IL. They have all the sirens up that they currently manufacture so they can demo them for customers.

When the city/county tests their siren system, all of them will go off at the same time.

Here's a video from before the 508 even went into production.

My father used to work at a small steel firm literally right across the street from Federal, and claimed that every once in a while, he would hear the Modulator play music! I asked him when they test the siren, but they do not do it on a scheduled basis.
