Re: Vintage siren photos thread

Today I remembered this thread existed. Here's some various vintage photos I've found from Facebook posts at various air force and radar installations across the US, Canada, and Thailand. 425318014_10161921516105934_4258456939307689812_n.jpg CFS Holberg, British Columbia, Canada.

Re: Games with Sirens in them.

Can't exactly remember which game this is, but there was a post made on Facebook a while back that showed a tower-mounted FS Model 5 atop a small brick building in what looked like to be some sort of racing game, maybe Forza or NFS.

Re: Copy cats?

Not only do I reply to my own posts…I also wait 12 years to finally share photos/videos. Not wanting to continue a bumped thread from 14 years ago but, wow. That's impressive. Isn't that one of those smaller "USI" sirens that were made for home intrusion alerting, just with a second rotor?

Re: Uniquely Mounted Sirens Thread

Logistically, this Thunderbolt isn't odd, but its mount is rather unique. I do actually appreciate the way how it was made with maintenance access in mind. They can't be using the ladder that much. The paint condition speaks to that :lol: I always thought siren mounts with a maintenance platform we...

Re: The FS 508 siren map

Cook County, Georgia: Most of these units haven't been installed yet, but it is safe to say they will be soon.

If it’s called 1003 because it can do 3 signals, that’s what Fs said, would a 1000 be a 1002 for its two signals?
No... just, no...

Re: Finally releasing to the public...Oklahoma Statewide Map

Hi folks, I recently watched a tornado damage/aftermath drone video and noticed something: a Thunderbolt 1000T was downed. What's intriguing is that most of the siren appears to be intact, but the age of the 1000T suggests it will probably end up as scrap. Is anyone down there able to contact the c...
