Almost certain that is an STH-10 wired up on 480. Almost sounds like the one in Russiaville...

That does look like an 8 port Darley Champion without it's shroud.

Sorry, but there's not enough detail to make any sort of educated guess.

Okay, that's certainly a Darley Champion siren. Strange, did they use the same guts for the vertical sirens as the horizontal ones? It looks just like a single-headed horizontal siren but flipped and with an eyebolt added.

Asking for a friend--he says these are from a military base circa 1978. I've done some hunting online & here, but I'm stumped. Any ideas?

sirens are ubiquitous and loud--how come we're the only folks who seem to notice them?

Black siren is a Federal Sig model L, Next to it is a diaphone of some sort, and the white things are PA horn speakers.
I have an unhealthy obsession with mini sirens.
