Has to be either a Model 5 or 7.

I'm not sure if these are even sirens. They may just be PA announcement systems, but I want your opinions. There's an ATI of some sort very close by. This is in OKC. IIRC, at the Cox Pavilion. Some event center. There were more of those horns set up around the area, but most of them looked liked the one pictured. With one or two exceptions.

The pictures are not showing up here. Looks like the permissions may not be set. Have you made sure they're set to public?

I turned on the sharing permissions in Google Photos, but I'm not sure if it worked. I also added one attachment that at least shows what the horns look like. I'll add another attachment on this one too.

Looks like they’re PA speakers. They’re not custers, as they’re not the same setup, don’t have controls, and this sort of speaker is fairly common.

99% sure it is a Custer Eletric Siren. It seems to be an older model. They have a system in Rushville, Indiana.

Well, I would think that they have controls. It's just that they're on another pole, on the other side of the road. That grey box on the pole with the light.

These are supposedly the controls?


But they might just be PA controls.

[Synther]

It's not a Custer siren. Pretty sure none were installed outside Indiana. It's 100% a pubic address system. Those "controls" are most likely just an enclosure that houses an amplifier.

I have no idea.

It is somewhere in Pennsylvania. I forget where it was, but it had a strobe on it.
Anyway.

It looks like a Sentry.

Didn't XT22s come with skirts as an option?

Horns were default, but skirts could be optioned IIRC

I didnt know that

That thing on the fire department is a roof vent silly!
