Re: Grand Forks, ND EOWS 612 Siren

I'm really late to the party on this one, but I have some basic information. This is an older 612, built sometime between 1984-85. It's not active unfortunately. It hasn't moved in quite a few years.

Re: My Sterling Model M48

M48? Huh that's interesting. Does the ID plate name it as an M48?

Re: how old are most federal signal model 5/7s?

The Model 3, 5 and 7 date back pretty far. I'm not certain on a more precise date, but they definitely reach back to the 1940s, heck maybe even further into the late 30s. The Model 2 is even older.

Re: EOWS 612 in possestion.

ok, I hope it runs soon. Federal really should bring back the SiraTone and the EOWS lineup, one thing I like about the SiraTone is there is no exposed wires unlike the UltraVoice, The UltraVoice's signals also sound more crappy, and not as much time tooken into detail unlike the SiraTone.

Re: Federal Signal EOWS 1212 - 1 minute alert

It's low tone dominant because only 4 of the speakers is running the high tone and the other 8 are running the low tone. The UltraVoice can't spread out the tone because of it's design. Each amp is mono 400W. The SiraTone amps were mono 200W, allowing an even 3/3 split.

Hope it actually works. That thing was struck by lightning. I have the controller to it right now and it’s a mess.

Re: Siren Manuals

Here's the manual for the Federal SiraTone, revision B from November 1986.

This is the best version of the SiraTone manual I've found so far. It's packed with information.
