My friend from Long Island recently discovered the first known 7/10 port Siro Drone. This siren is located on the fire station on Front Street in Massapequa. NY. Here is the video:

Sorry to pick holes but... this isn't the FIRST video documented 7/10 HOR. Here's one right at the start!

Okay, enough of the nitpicking, I mean, the siren in the video above doesn't even sound.

Anyway, That sure sounds scary! Also love the housing too, quite interesting design... especially with that dish like part. Wonder if it affects the sound performance?

Also, is it single phase or three phase? Don't really know because it sounds like it's on 208VAC, or on a phase converter, or the box sticking out on the side of the motor is a capacitor box. EDIT: What am I talking about? That box it the junction box for the siren!

Otherwise, great recording! Nice to hear a 7/10 Si-Rex for the first time!

What I meant by first documented was the first video of one sounding.

There was a video of one of Massapequa's sirens many years ago but it disappeared.
