I.E: the former state fair park P-50 with a fried motor due to being struck by lightning. I believe that siren still sits in their yard. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Apparently from what I heard from Ramfett, this P-50 was taken out of service because it has the history of sucking in fiberglass and especially because the chopper has seized up multiple times before. Just not as bad as what happened here.

maybe its time that the sirencon staff get a more powerful 480V generator, and i hope that they try the p50 again next year and nothing goes wrong.

To answer your questions, this siren was being fed 480V, the reason the frequency was off at first was because the siren itself wasn’t wired correctly and the generator was not happy. At all. If everything had been done right, the P-50 would’ve sounded much better!
