It's a GCS Model 5 with a normal 5 cap stuck on it, no questions asked. I'm guessing the top dome rusted off so they installed the normal 5 cap to keep water from going down inside the chopper.

That siren under the STH-10 is a Sterling K5 based on the motors base that is signature of a K5. It just has no housing!

I'll have to ask the fire department.
I'm sure that the bottom skirt was a fedelcode skirt though.

Upon further inspection, you are right. It is a GCS Model 5 with a custom shroud.
that sucks...
although its my first GCS siren...

The housing is Fedelcode, so my guess is it's a Fedelcode.
I have a thing for objects that light up or make noise.

AAAH I'm not sure.
Ill definitely ask the FD when I get a chance.
Anyway, you guys talked about a mystery siren in PA that looked like this. https://doc-04-4c-mymaps.googleusercont ... ife=s16383
I believe it is a B&M 6GA.

I didn't find it. Someone else did. I was just clarifying.

That photo looks oddly familiar... I wonder why B&M called them 6GA and 10GA. Was the number ports or something?
