Just a quick question, does anybody know what sirens St. Louis City had before WPS-2807s?

125 STL-10s. A quick search of the forum would have turned that up as it’s been discussed here before.

Is there any map or list of locations of the old STL-10s?

Hmm, my guess is that the 2807s directly replaced them don't quote me on that though judging how St. Louis county replaced their yellow sirens with 2910s in different locations...

There's a topic about St Louis's history of the systems they had, its been discussed there. I'm reading through the whole topic as we speak.

Very wrong. 60 2800 units replaced the STL-10s. It was a ground up redesign of the system.

Also, FedTB’s claim of there being Alertronics in the old county system is wrong. Take some of what you read with a grain of salt.
