Pictures of the DENVER are now available Via MidWest Sira Tech.
Last know info, is the siren is NOT operational & crew(s) will go back to see if it can be fixed.

Not at all to be rude, so don't take this the wrong way... But why are people making topics of something they can not expand on, contribute anything to at the time of posting, or do anything about? There are so many things I could have posted new topics on based on very similar circumstances, but I know better. Nothing ever comes of them, and that would just mean that I helped clutter the board even more. Now I do see in perspective that it is a Denver, very interesting... but without a picture or whatever else someone could toss up here, then it is just words. I have been lurking for the past few months, nothing posted in that time period has really grabbed my attension. Also, same thing goes with the google maps thing... I could give everyone the locations to the sirens in Clinton County, NY... one topic at a time and never accomplish anything. Aerial views are horrible because there is no detail. My 2 cents, reguardless. Once again SouthDakotaboy2009, no harm intended by what I just said.

Topics like these are fine, but they should be posted in the General Siren Discussion thread unless its something extraordinary.


Topic moved.

I have felt this way myself. I have been with this board since it was founded in the late 1990's by people with an interest in outdoor warning devices. In the last couple of years, it seems that this board has been overrun by junior-high kids with a psychologically-unhealthy fetish for sirens and poor posting habits. My computer usually won't even open Google maps, and when it does, I can't tell a siren from a Saint Bernard.

WOW, what a cool find. You guys are right, that thing looks big! So, is it just a dual tone, with 4 rows of ports?

No. Its single tone. You can see that there are the same number of ports on each part.

OH FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.

I hate to bump an old, long dead topic, but I am waist deep in a Denver Siren map, and literally spent 3 hours searching for THIS exact post, only to get skunked!!

Is there ANYBODY who can tell me where this low mounted dinosaur was? I remember it was in some small town and it was mounted maybe 10 feet off the ground on two poles next to an old pump house. Midwest Sira Tech has completely vanished off the face of the earth, and I have no way of contacting him to figure this one out.
