Catalina island air raid sirens.

Post by Flat Train »

Saw a Video on some air raid sirens on Catalina island, and wondered if there is more sirens than the 1 confirmed model 7 in Avalon. I visited two harbors and saw a smaller siren that looked like a model A, But i'm not sure. I doubt this will get any replies, but it is worth a shot.

The Model 7T And model A are the only sirens I know of, The Model 7 is tested on the last Friday of each month at noon, It’s used for emergencies, Calling Volunteers and for special occasions, I filmed it and plan to get a actual video with my cameras soon (I only found out about the test from a phone alert about 10 minutes before noon) I believe the Model A is inactive.

Video of Model 7:
