Federal Signal PA500L Remote Siren Demo

This is my new-old-stock PA500L remote siren. This has the WAIL, YELP, HI-LO and AIR HORN tones.

[@RileyStanchina]

Definitely has an 80's sound to it.

Well most of the time i'll just slightly cover the speaker with a pillow. But with this siren, it has the option of powering a 58watt speaker, 100watt speaker, or punching out 200watts.

Sounds like a PA300. Older models

Most of the Federal electronic sirens made since the early 1970s were designed to produce high-pitched wail and yelp tones. This siren has low-pitched wail and yelp tones, so it's quite unique compared the other stuff that was made in the late 1980s - early 1990s.

[@chrisv4096]

I'm not quite sure. I believe it was from the late '80s to early '90s.

[@aarjor123]

actually, they use the 500M, which has a somewhat higher pitch...but CHP does not use phaser or any additional siren at all....the only tones they use are Wail and Yelp.......but now they're using Whelen sirens

[@themooseisontheloose]

sorry pal FDNY uses PA300 not a bad guess though

Hi, I'm trying to make similar videos but am I'm wondering how to do it exactly. What did you use as a power source and how did you connect it to a speaker? Also what speaker did you use also? Thanks for the help!

On there newer trucks they have Electronic Q sirens, and on the older trucks, they have pa 300s.

[@aarjor123]

not sure because it has a different sound than most of the common whelen sirens and I haven't been able to find the exact siren amp....but I believe it's some kind of WS siren amp

[@ericthesoldier]

are u sure because the when i was watchen this show an older show of cops lapd had a siren that sounded like this on manual

[@j.jonesey4002]

Hello ChrisV, would it be possible to get in contact with you about an more up to date sound video with a newer/clearer audio to it? For use within a game? Thanks!

[@chrisv4096]

Hello. Sorry for the late reply. Unfortunately i no longer have this siren unit and I wouldnt be able to get a higher quality recording for you. If I find another similar siren like this, I'll be sure to contact you.

@1998CrownVictoria uhh

[@ZKnox101]

i'll pay some good money for this unit and give it a nice home

[@Cop1705]

The CHP still uses this siren but has changed the Hi-Lo to a Phaser for a more modern sound!!

[@futuredoc2014]

In California Hi-Lo and Phaser are illegal. CHP uses custom Whelens now with wail and yelp.

[@dfw_fpis7655]

@@futuredoc2014 How are tones illegal? They're being used by emergency vehicles for crying out loud. Way to go Cali.

[@rrobertsnot5150]

Micromanagement

[@ericthesoldier]

i think NYPD LAPD AND CHICAGO PD(CPD) and most of the united states used this siren back then in the 1980's mid early and late and early 1990's i can tell

[@ChandlerRFink]

Nope, you're thinking of the 300
