Well if youre in pa youre in luck, that was palmyra and I have no other info on it besides it was used for fire
Yeah, that's the siren I was talking about. It's sadly inactive now, that's the old department. Some guy owns the station (and the thunderbolt) and it's been dead for years. It did hi-low wail for calls.

my question is how do you get a thunderbolt to do alternate wail? would you need some 3rd party made controller or could you just rig up an af timer to run the wail and solenoids?

You'd need to mess with the RCM3, I assume change the cycle that happens when you flip the "Modulate" switch. You'd probably need to change something on the AF timer as well.

timers run the solenoids. the af timer was made specifically for solenoid operation sirens

I believe that is a Siemens siren and a random speaker cluster.

Here's one of me looking up under a 2001 in Warren County, Oh. It's an older SRN with a new rectifier and battery box.
