There are numerous Allertors around the country. Countywise, Osage County KS has 5 or so allertors.

There are a few kicken around in Denver, and Robert Gift would be able to fill you in on where they are in the City.
Still close enough to a Fed Sig 550AT to drive out on test day: First Friday in May - 7PM!

There is one in Hamilton County's system in Springdale.

Unfortunatley, it hasn't been rotating for at least 2 years.

The county knows, but they need the ok from Springdale to make the repair. It may be replaced if the repair isn't made.

Starkville, MS has 2 allertors in it's system. Also, I've seen at least one allertor in West Point, MS.

I've seen an allertor in memphis at East High School and I've heard it was a gas powered allertor.

Oak Grove, MO has two Allertors. They are no longer in service as of about 10 months ago when they installed 5 Modulater 4016s, but they left them up.
Lee's Summit, MO has an Allertor in the business district. Peculier, MO has one on the north end of Main Street. Emporia, KS has two Allertors also.

I know for sure that Eden Prairie, MN has at least one, as does Pine Island, MN. I have also seen quite a few others around the Minneapolis/St. Paul suburbs.

While I'm sure there are others, here's the locations of Allertors in the State of Wisconsin that I know of:

Numerous ones of various cities including Brown Deer, Whitefish Bay, Milwaukee, and Greenfield in Milwaukee County

At least one in the town of Trevor in Kenosha County

At least two in the city of Racine in Racine County

Numerous ones in Chilton and Manitowoc in Manitowoc County

Several in the Madison area of Dane County, some of which are of the 8/12 port ratio

A couple in Prairie du Sac in Sauk County.

I believe there are also Allertors in Mequon in Ozaukee County as well, some are rumored to have the old 10/12 port federal rotors.

I don't know about the county (Cook County is huge), but the village I live in still has 3 Allertors, that were purchased in the 1970's. All single tone, 2 yellow, and 1 gray. The gray one being about 150 feet from my house. :)
