Whelen WS-224A/B
I acquired some really rare sirens recently. This is the Whelen WS224. Very old as well, they were produced during the 80s and early 90s. They are extremely rare to find especially one with the "piercer" tone. I really used up all my luck finding these two.
My favorite Whelen siren. The tones on this beat out any modern Whelen by a long shot.

A new demo of one of my favorite sirens. It’s been awhile but I feel as if it needs a new demo. Now includes the Manual tone!

Unitrol Omega Redux

Another demo of the Omega 90. This time with a different controller and better sound. I have a dual tone cable and a 2nd amplifier but I don’t have a second speaker yet. The dual tone will come when I eventually get a second speaker hopefully.
Silver Face PA300
มุมมอง 2.2K2 ปีที่แล้ว
The first of the PA300s and the successor of the PA200. FDNY used several of these before they got theirs custom made. In my opinion the best sounding PA300 and the only PA300 I’ll ever own.

This is the rarest Smart Siren of them all. Very unique tones only found in the radio versions of the amplifier.
First Generation Smart Siren SS2000
มุมมอง 8K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Back from the dead. Bonus is an even older controller which I don’t have a compatible amplifier for. That explains the rapid flashes but it is even older than the working one. This Smart Siren is the one produced from the early 90s to mid 90s. These are the color membrane keypads before they made them with the more reliable soft pad buttons. Both amplifiers and controllers are the same dimensio...

Rare Scientific Prototypes Mark 7

Here is my SP Mark 7 siren manufactured in 1979. This is basically the holy grail of my collection. It’s extremely basic siren but it has a lot of history behind it. It is a former NYPD unit.
LAPD Unitrol Omega 90
มุมมอง 18K3 ปีที่แล้ว
This is a rare LAPD Unitrol Omega 90. Both amplifier and controller are former LAPD units. The controller is wired in a way where there is no airhorn function. LAPD also did this with their 80Ks or 80H units back in the 90s. Enjoy the demo. Dual tone version is coming soon. Also enjoy my crappy iMovie editing.

    I need to figure out how to convert an old Spectra unit to use the W9 head, have all of the adapters for the main body but I need someone to do some bit banging in the MFM module so the radio recognizes the W9 head. Yes this Real Old stuff but it’s fine for amateur use.

    • @sirendude
      @sirendude ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi. You need to make sure the VIP ports are programmed to the horn ring on the CPS software. If using a DEK depending on what you have programmed to, the horn ring is activated by touching ground to pins 15, 16 and 17. Hope this helps.

      It is actually pretty rare. People sell them dirt cheap because they are unable to use them without the radio and cable. The cable for the Smart Siren is extremely rare and you almost never find them or find them cut. With the cable and amplifier included it can be up to $275-300.
