The Siren Board

Now that my summer class is done, summer break can finally begin, and I'd say this test started it off with a bang! This is the last Alertronic in Rolling Meadows and is set to be on the chopping block soon. I was able to meet up with Mitch (Montecat 33) & Stevan (Chicago Sirens), so an awesome meetup indeed! This siren is located off Kirchoff Ave. and Meadow Dr. and replaced a three-signal Hurricane MK I in the 1980's. Enjoy!

It has an interesting tone. From what I can hear it's the equivalent of 12/14 dual tone port ratios.

There was no such thing as a tri-signal hurricane. ACA only made single and dual toned ones.

He means one that had Hi-Lo capability (hence a 3rd signal).

Nice recording! shame that it will be replaced.

Still quiet as ever. They'd have been better sticking with the MK1 at this rate!
