Re: Mystery Omni-Directional Siren my Uncle collected

That almost reminds me of one of the Weltex sirens with a custom shroud. Across the various model 20 shroud variations I've never seen ones with louvers that look like that. The top and bottom louvers seem to have a much larger lip than most model 20s or classic federal sirens. Compared to a model 2...

Re: Mystery siren in Eden Prairie MN
