It looks like an old Model 5 with an oversized dunce hat on it.

It does appear to be the innards of a Model 5, which oddly enough brings me back to a thread posted nine, maybe ten, years ago where, to the best of my recollection, one member posted a pic of a naked Model 5 or 7 topped with what essentially looked to be a conical sheet metal cover identical to the one shown here. It's probably safe to say that allot of FDs fashion in-house shrouds that look pretty much the same, but I do have a strange feeling that this very siren might have been discussed a long time ago. How I got the flashback, I have no clue. :crazy:

That shroud reminds me of the one on the Siro-Drone in Toledo.

It could be this siren, With the bottom part somehow taken off.

Sorry if I am bumping this topic. I live about 45 minutes from Dayton and I saw it yesterday. I don't know if it is still active, but it is there.
