Nice find on those photos. As far as the unknowns, number 3 appears to be some kind of Hormann siren in a foreign country.

The China-Alarm siren looks like a copy, with slight differences of a ACA Alertronic siren (thanks 40V2T22) here:

Also, the "Canadian Mystery Siren" is no longer a mystery and has been solved for some time. There are many posts on this board regarding the topic. The information on the siren can be found here:

That number three siren is actually a photo that i found a few months ago while reading a newspaper in Arkansas.. you can find a lot of photos of sirens when you Google it and then click on images.

The Oak Ridge Siren is an early ACA Alertronic.

I know alot has been covered on that subject, I can't ever remember anyone saying or knowing if those CLM's were single or dual toned. I'd sure like to get hold of one & find out.........

Yeah, the ninth picture has a diaphragm-type horn, I think.

The third picture looks as if it pertains to a siren from KockumSonic {I hope that I spelled the name of the company right.}
