Guess I was wrong about the quad siren setup. Here's another featuring a Model 2, two Model D's, and a Model A.

The small siren to the right of the Model A actually appears to be a Sterling Model F! That’s a great find!

That's amazing! Great eyes!

Here's a Whelen with an I-Force next to each other, but just down the road, there's an old, but active 2T22https://www.google.com/maps/@17.7437673,-64.693 ... 312!8i6656

What a strange install, did one of these sirens replace the other? Are they part of different systems?

I'm not sure. My acquaintance, SuperSirex127 marked them on my map of North America, and confirmed the I-Force and 2T22 being active, but the Whelen's activity is unknown, but most likely active. Would imagine they're all the same system, since the U.S. Virgin Islands have very few sirens. I'll update if I find anything.

Weird, I don't remember doing that. The 2t22 is certainly not active, as it was destroyed by Hurricanes Irma and Maria back in 2017. Pretty much the entire siren system got destroyed by those storms. I don't remember if that I-force made it out alive but some of the other ones suffered nasty fates.

Here's a cool trio i stumbled upon while siren hunting. I'm assuming the 2001-130 replaced the RSH-10 which most likely replaced the Model B.

Here are some Model L's at this dam near Branson MO

Sweet!

There is a place near me that has an ACA Screamer 7.5, a Federal Electric Type B, and one of my homemade WeatherDefenders.

Here is the backstory.

So first of all, our town wanted something to replace the Type B while they fix it. They picked a screamer up from a scrapyard and turns out by tha time they had mounted it and tried to test it they realised it didn’t even have a rotor inside. So they went to me for one of my siren and I said “Okay, I’ll get one out” so I did. Now they have replaced 5 sirens in my area with my WeatherDefenders. How good can it get?
