Fed Sig Aerodynic letter meanings?

[Watermelons are cool]

Hello everyone.

Does anyone has a list of what all those letters at the end of the 22/24/25. Seems like just about every letter of the alohabet was tacked on the end.

Also, assuming the Model 22 was the first Aerodynic version, when did it even realease? I've seen some Aeros on 50's/60's Ford fire engines that served the old fire district in my area.

Thanks!

The first Aerodynic was introduced in the second half of 1976 and it was the Model 24. The Model 25, which was the first to replace the speaker section with lenses for an all-light Aerodynic came about in 1980. The Model 22 mini-Aerodynic and Model 24R and 24X Aerotwinsonic were introduced in 1982.
For the letters after the model number, they indicate specifcs about that particular Aerodyic and any option that were factory installed.
