I dunno. It's definitely a Fedelcode variant. I want to say a custom housing, but 1) they're usually pretty recent and 2)there's still the original Fedelcode tag on there, so I dunno what to tell you.

That is actually a mystery siren in my book, although some do believe it is actually a 2T22 on the inside with just the motor rotors and stators.

A 2T22? That would have to be a very big housing to hold a 2T22.

It looks as if its bottom rotor is from a low-tone Model 7, with the top rotor looking rather similar. Weird. I wonder as to whether Fed. Sig. actually put forward a project like this.

There is one of these in Mount Union, Pa.... I have just finally made a friend in Mifflin County which is the bordering county. He said he could most likely get me a siren test, I will see what I can do. Also, not making any promises.. not saying I am going to record it....nothing like that.

It looks like both rotors have the same number of ports. Almost like a Darley dual-head turned vertical. Maybe Darley got Federal's leftovers and made them horizontal?

Also, when are they going to update the Siren Site again? I have tons of digital photos of sirens all around western Oregon, including replacements for the poor scanned photos I sent them before, but I haven't gotten any response from them.
