ACA P-50 - Attack Signal - DeSoto, TX

Here is one of the few remaining active ACA P-50s in the DFW Metroplex. I met up with WhammyP-50 who also recorded this siren. This unit is located by a Big Lots on N Hampton Rd. in DeSoto, TX. This siren sounds the attack signal and was very loud in person.

Wow! Now that's one loud bucket siren! 😆

[@whammyp50]

We had a great time! Thanks for coming!

[@TboltTX1]

Same here! Can't wait until next time.

[@Eights_Coronel-864]

WOW I can't imagine how that would sound in real life

[@OWS_Crazy1]

Are you going to video tape a siren today I might video one in Rockwall but it might to cloudy for them to test it

[@amberlynn6914]

Mentioned this on Whammy's video...seems to be reverse wired?
Can P-50 rotators be wired independently on the siren, like a 'bolt rotator?

[@TboltTX1]

amberlynn6914 I believe the rotator can be wired either way on these, since the chopper and rotator is powered by two separate motors, unlike the P-10 and P-15.

is this one gonna get replaced? i live close to it

[@whammyp50]

jack williamson not to my knowledge. It would be a shame if they did. But the P-50s in Texas have been dropping like flies.

[@jackwilliamson54]

i know right? i drive by this siren sometimes. maybe in the summer we can meetup and film it

[@whammyp50]

jack williamson yes maybe. I am planning on re-recording this in HD this summer.

[@jackwilliamson54]
