So that must be the very first T-128 built in a barn? I had no idea that it was built this early before mass production began.
This is just me, but I honestly feel that Dale had absolutely nothing to do with the T-128 aside from market it once it hit the mainstream. Jim most likely did everything in design and development of the Tempest.
My knowledge excels on the Federal Thunderbolt siren and SiraTone EOWS sirens. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I remember when the current "T112" was called the "T121" long before it had horns, and advertised that way on their website. Then one day, the T121 suddenly had horns, and the hornless version, what was once the T121, was then called the T112. It was strange.
I remember when we still had that siren museum on this website and could view different models from different companies, if you clicked on the T-121, it would first show us a picture of a T-112 (no horns), and then the next picture was an actual T-121 (with horns).

I know I'm a little late to the party, but kudos on the find! I agree with Uncommonsense, gems like these surface only once in a long while. Heh. Those photos were taken half a month before my second birthday.

It's interesting to note one row of drivers on the Quadren effectively taking up two cells worth of vertical room. That thing must've been quite the wind-catcher.

It’s crazy to think that only 75 miles away from me was those sirens. It’s nice to see another Quadren siren. The OM siren looks small in one of the pictures...

Super cool photos. Pretty small chance that these would have been taken to begin with, and an even smaller chance that they would have survived this long.
Now what became of that Alertronic 5000? That certainly looks like one of its horns.

This might be off topic but I found the ACA Website and it shows the T-121, The P-50, And what seems to be an early T-128.

There's a website I haven't seen in awhile. That website has been up unchanged since I was a kid (I'm 32 now). It was for Jim's business as a consultant, not for ACA as we knew it. ACA as we knew it went defunct before the dawn of the modern internet.
