Federal Signal Touchmaster Delta siren. Very odd to have one in a unit like that or even on the east coast.
I asume that was the original Medic 11. That was the original GMC and had a different siren (obviously) then all the other medic units.

There ya go!
I could barely hear it. It's like all the electronic sirens, low volume. Traffic can't hear them, need to have a motor siren on all emergency vehicles.

The 2010 E series Ford's had there siren speakers mouted in the grill area and let me tell you they were far from quiet in the cab.
Something tells me that was a local station installed siren. Those Touchmasters are a little on the costly side, too cheap for Philly!
 What ever happened to this snorkel after this mishap?
