Reno, NV sirens?

Does anyone know what, if any, sirens are/were installed in Reno, NV? It seems to me that I read something about Reno sirens here or on the old board. I did a quick Google search and a local search here, but came up empty. I'm going to be there this coming weekend for the big Hot August Nights car event, camera in hand. I'd like to come home with some siren pics to share!

I've been around Reno, and although I wasn't looking for sirens, I don't remember ever seeing any. A half-hour outside Reno, in Doyle, CA, is an unusual WWII-era siren, and also if you follow the signs to Chilcoot and Beckwourth on the road to Quincy (also in CA), you'll find one of those trapezoidal sirens in Chilcoot like the one in my avatar (which is in Summit City, CA, near Shasta Dam).
