All that's left of the T-bolts.

I want to go back for one of the control boxes, not this one though.

Great pictures, those SD-10s have a Peerless Motor on them. Should still run fine.
Just because you're offended, doesn't mean you're right.

This siren "which I am guessing this is a Federal STH-10" is located near the tower at Tucson International Airport.

It is still active and is tested every Monday morning.

I will attempt to get a video, but with security the way it is, I really don't know how close I will get to it. "Taking this photo was risky enough, hence the poor quality."

That is indeed an STH-10. Nice find!

Does Tuscon have any newer sirens? I think I just found a roof-mounted T121 at the University.

Possibly just for the campus, but city-wide, no.

Do you have a general idea where it is located?

It might be some cell phone/radio structure, but from the west it looks mighty similar to a Tempest.

Ah, looks like they might use that system for public announcements. That opening in front of the building is used for farmers markets, cookouts, parties etc. I'll see if I can get up there to get some photos, but I really cant promise anything.

Thanks for sharing!
