Dual tone ACA Allertor 125 located at Stangel Elementary in the city of Manitowoc. These were the only sirens in town until about 10 years ago when the city installed penetrators to fill in the gaps. At the end I zoom in tight on it and you can see it spinning inside.
This one sounds like it's about six semitones lower than the other ones in town. Motor problems prehaps?
**UPDATE**
This siren has since been replaced by a T-128 It's nice to see my home town has good taste in buying new sirens
**UPDATE** I now have hard evidence this siren was installed in 1982!
RIP Stangel Elementary Allertor
1982-2008

(Edit) Well, it was a pretty sick siren. With the following issues:

Yep, and this is one of them here. They had a 10hp Doerr capacitor start/run motor, and more times than not they would wind up like this due to armature trouble Doerr had with those motors. The P-15 we just refurbished and installed had a 15hp Doerr single phase motor on it, and sounded at about the same pitch as this one.

It's also been hit by lightning several times

This is the video that got me into allertors.

Awesome. I'd have to say that the dual tone ACA Allertor is my favorite siren overall. This lower-pitched one sounds downright creepy, too. Thanks for posting.

The Allertor is one of my Favorite Sirens...it Looks Good and Sounds Good too......i wish the FS 2001's sounded like them. :-)...better yet i wish they were still made!

LOVE THE SOUND OF THAT ALLERTOR!!!!! SAD THAT IT WAS REPLACED BY A T-128 :( T-128s suck a little (not even loud)

It's a dual tone siren. The motor has issues though.

I hear these sirens every Saturday while eating lunch. I never took much notice of it going to Stangel, but it's really cool that the old CD logos are still on it!
