Never knew there were other Super Sirex's in California. The only two that were known for a long time now are at the Imperial Dam and they are used for flood warnings.

I like the way this one is mounted, it's not too common to see sirens mounted on cellphone equipment towers.

Yeah. It says there tested on the last Friday of the month at 11 but from looking at for example the Thunderbolts and that Bullard siren ,they appear to not have rotated even by looking at street views as old as 2007. There rotators are in the same spot.

This sure is an interesting system, but it sure seems like it's rotting away. That's sad.

Not all super Sirexes rotated, not to mention that a rotating super Sirex is as effective as snake oil (or rather a non rotating super Sirex in this case), it wouldn't surprise me at all if this one is a non rotating unit.

Per a map of the system someone found, the Adren Fair thunderbolt should be active, ditto for the Bullard and most of the Scream Masters. The HOR is inactive, and the same goes for the other Thunderbolt.

According to local residents the bullard does sound but doesn't rotate.
