Re: the CICCA siren rabbit hole

That 2:1 theory sounds pretty interesting, not that it would be visible Somehow? Judging from the apparence of the Xonrupt siren, I'd be more inclined to say that it's indeed a faster motor that was fitted. we will probably only know when i come and film the siren in may (the one in Videauban as it...

Re: the CICCA siren rabbit hole

That was my first guess too, it wouldn't surprise me if this was the case. There was some sirens that were mounted in bell towers that had the same arrangement, 8 ports but only four larger horns. this is the case at Villecroze where a Pakita LCI3P siren was mounted with only 4 horns attached, but ...

Re: the CICCA siren rabbit hole

It looks like it had more horns at some point and they just fell off. maybe, it probably had 7 horns but for some reason one of them fell off, as in a 2008 street view, a 7th horn can be seen, i have no clue... I also think that the 4 horn siren, unless you have seen inside of it, might have more t...

Re: the CICCA siren rabbit hole

Besides the small Ciccas, there's some that look like CEN or Demays, making them a bit harder to distinguish, such as the one my friend had, I vividly remember it said "Sirene Cicca" on the motor tag. Hell if I knew where the pictures of it went... tho, i recently filmed another siren up ...

Re: the CICCA siren rabbit hole

Ah that would be summer in English... But getting back to the 5 horn Cicca.. It's worth a shot, worse thing they can say is "No", so there's not much risk to be taken there. its actually 6 horns, not 5, and in one older google maps shot it looks like it had 7 horns, weird... tho its indee...

Re: the CICCA siren rabbit hole

It could be a 5 port with a high RPM motor (a la Federal Model 2) just like one of the Ciccas you linked to earlier. It would sound like a 10 port siren but with half of the ports. maybe, not sure. tho, Barjols does a "water party" at the regional water house on a specific day of "ét...

Re: the CICCA siren rabbit hole

Okay that's even weirder. I can't tell if it's got four horns like the Xonrupt unit does but that's definitely a odd one! if you look at this google maps (non street view) here https://www.google.com/maps/@44.7272228,3.855207,51m/data=!3m1!1e3?entry=ttu , you can actually see it has 5 horns. even l...
