[QUOTE="Jaros, post: 623724, member: 1122"] It put out 2 different signals a Raid imminent signal and an All Clear signal and could be heard up to 8klm away. The last time it was used was to signal the end of the war 15th August 1945. Description Cylindrical air raid siren made of tin-plated sheet steel that has been riveted together. Painted light grey, the siren has three groups of flutes for sound direction and a pointed canopy, which has been soldered together. Standing on three individual metal legs the siren is operated via an internal electrical rotor. [/QUOTE]
