Greetings -
Picture album of a siren, Federal EOWS-612 speaker array, being moved from one location to another. Whole bunch in my album in Photobucket:
Especially good shot of the siren head:

I may have to change the link as I sort my album; be prepared.

Excellent photo, but that's an EOWS-115.

They look a lot bigger once on the ground.

Yes, it says it a -115, but I've got a PDF of a manual, that allows me to call it a EOWS-612.

And yeah, the whole thing is a big operation. 65 ft pole, almost 18 inches at the base, hole is 8+ feet deep.
Just getting into this posting bit; I'm just now figuring out that I can link to an individual pic on photobucket, but someone else who wants to view my whole album has to be a member of photobucket, eh? Can you guys advise me?

Huh? Perhaps I've misunderstood your point, but that photo you took is of an EOWS-115, not an EOWS-612. An EOWS-612 is a rotating speaker array with six horns featuring two drivers apiece.
Here's a scan of a 1983 Federal Signal catalogue to prove my point:

And here's a picture of an EOWS-612:

Perhaps your manual was one that Federal wrote that covered both models. They had a tendency to write manuals to cover similar models for the sake of economy.
