Federal should bring back this siren for those who want a 'mechanical tone' for their cars, pickups, and SUVs.

My old neighbors were use to it. I have new ones now and they are in learning mode. Lol. I think I drew the most attention when I did the PA20 video, I had to do several retakes to get the pattern I wanted. Cars were running up and down the road looking for the action.

Agree, it's always been my favorite, IMO superior to the Q. Were I speccing for an agency- standard 28s for trucks, high pitch 28s for autos and SUVs.

I heard the high pitched 28s and 66s. They scream as high as the PA15A series 1E and PA20A series 2E electronic sirens (c. 1970s). I prefer the standard pitch versions.
