Sure looks like a Federal PA-1 or 2. Thanks so much for posting, confirms it was a 50 watt siren.

Anything else, as far as sirens, electronic or mechanical, that you'd like to see, of for that matter, any other equipment?

If its not too much trouble. would love to see what sirens they offered in the catalogs both electronic and mechanical.

Where did you find this one, Dan. Haven't seen a Dazl-Ray in many, many years. Nice!!

These lights are obviously Federal, but they all bore the Darley Champion name tag. Just as the Champion sirens were made by Federal for Darley, so were the beacons; and the Champion versions all sold for considerably less than a stock Federal item. I have a beacon that is somewhat of a rarity. When I first got it, I thought that it was a short-skirted Federal 17. But it is actually a 174 in the smaller skirt and old-style smaller dome; and it has the Darley Champion label as well.

Why don't you post the Darley siren pages, Dan. I always liked their version of the Federal 28 that they called the "Tornado Champion", which they called a long-roll siren.
Did Darley offer a Federal Pulsator siren in any of their catalogs? What about Chas Greenblatts?

I had NO IDEA that the UniBeacons went back this far. Not to mention the Spitfire domes. Awesome!

Thanks, Dan. I didn't see the siren pages before. The library has been having computer difficulties. Looks like they just didn't load last time I looked!
Just latched on to 6 more complete catalogs.
Stay tuned for more pictures of some very different, rarely seen items!

I've got a Darley Fire Catalog. But it is undated.
I think it's a 1975 catalog. Cause there are a bunch of 1776-1976 themed badges and things in it.
Any of those catalogs you got have any Civil Defense Sirens in it? My Fire Catalog does.

Never seen Model 1000 (predecessor to the Model 1200 Strobe)
Using the small L Head with power supply under the base.
The package is the same dome and base as the Model 44 ROTA-BEAM.
Single and on portable crossbar
