Weird square horned siren in Mayview, MO

Sat Feb 19, 2022 3:09 am

Found this weird looking thing on Google maps

it says on Jacob585's siren map that it's a 2t22 or 3t22

Looks like a square horned STL or STH.

Appears to be an STL-10 with square horns instead of the normal round horns. It's 7 port and has the same motor that STL-10s commonly used. DEFINITELY not any form of XT22.

While STL-10s did come with square horns at one point, the horns attached to this one are aftermarket, being much wider and rectangular in shape.

I know its not a 2 or 3 T22 but it's just what the map says

Yes, it is indeed a square-horned STL-10. They do in-fact exist, one of the locations being the one atop of the Warrenton Volunteer Fire Company in Warrenton, VA.
Holler!

As Snowpix said, these horns were likely attached after installation, meaning the siren didn't come with them. These horns appear to be more rectangular than square horn, and resemble the horn arrangment of an eclipse
Sirens may not be sexy, but they sure work.
