Sirens DO project farther when higher correct?
Definitely- and the fact that there is a FIRE STATION right next to it- It can't be that hard to mount it on top of there.

Well then, perhaps it was meant not to project as far because it was too loud or something along the lines of that. For fire sirens they get a lot of noise complaints.

I'd say the volume of noise complaints should be higher if the top row of horns is mounted ear level...

edit: volume... no pun intended?

LOL... anyway, have you searched for news reports from the community about it? Usually if there's some kind of public chatter about a siren then it will make its way into a news report.

I don't know if this siren was mentioned here before, but look at how low this is. And why would this be put in front of someone's house?! https://www.google.com/maps/@43.2505163 ... 312!8i6656

I wonder if it's privately owned.

It is possible, there aren't any controls visible.

If it is active, my best guess is that the controller is in that building next to it.

Either that, or its in that green box. We should get back on topic.
Count my darley in on low mounted sirens, it's on the ground. Pic is my PFP.
