  • I need the wiring diagrams please

  • Ahhh the good ol' days, brings back memories, that was my fave song... lol

  • Ahhh the good ol' days, brings back memories, that was my fave song... lol

  • That siren brings me back....

  • The SP Wail was used often by the R4 ESU REPs (such as ESU 5573) as they merged onto the southbound Deegan where I grew up in the Bronx when I was a kid. I used to know when a pin job was in from that siren.

  • i am looking for a wiring diagram for one of these sirens any help?

  • I love this siren!

  • ya, its nice, we get it, but in your videos of this stuff, tou don't have to pulse the fuckin buttons, its annoying, no one goes down the road pulsing the manual button.

  • Actually here in NYC thats how we used to do it just pulse the shit out of the siren rather than selecting a single sound.

  • Corey, Corey, Corey. How could you say that. Your sentiments are certainly not my own. Ain't nuthin' like "pulsing." Sometimes, the button would get hot from all that pulsing.

  • Don't get mad corey20013!

    If you grew up anywhere in nyc, you would know that "pulsing" is all they did. NYMSTR is retired from the job, He will tell you that was the way it was done. It was actually pretty rare to hear wail or hilo out of an NYPD vehicle. They hardly ever used the other tones.

  • @SP99 Absolutely correct, we almost NEVER used anything but the pulse. You have to be from NYC or were on OTJ to understand this.

  • Oh... trust me they do :)

  • @corey20013 I heat to break it to ya, but yes they do.... Go to Washington, DC, or NYC.

  • You're bothering Rupert!

  • That was my wife telling me that I was bothering the dog. From that point on, all other siren demos needed to be out of the house. Oh well...

  • its like a toy!

  • Can I ask just one question? Why do you not show us what the horn sounds like? I really like the horns on eltronical sirens. Great vids none the less. Just try to add the horns to it as well. Thanks for the vids!

  • This model does not have the airhorn option. The mark10 has it, but it sounds like crap.

  • Im lookig for this exact siren controll... the Stat7.. Does anyone know where I could find one? where should I look ? Thanks

  • Im looking for one also if you find one or a few or whatever could you let me know and I'll do the same for you also.Ive been looking for a while now with no luck.

  • I got one for $400.00

  • that ain't the NYPD shit

  • It was until the 1990's.

  • oh ok

  • not just the 90s they started using them back in the 70s

  • It was in the 80s.. from about 86 to 88 for shure...

  • These NYPD's were classic! :)

  • The one touch manual is used on "Third Watch" like every episode

  • I love Third Watch !

  • Yeah me too, i finally got every episode, and cant stop watching it from season 1 to 6 ...  again and again... fu**ing great!!! NYPD Sirens are awesome!

  • @jwelsh793 yeaa even in the late episodes they still never changed em lol

  • On some NY collections of ambulance vids you can hear something like this siren.

  • This was the coolest NYPD siren!!!!

  • Pimp.

  • how did you alter the cables to make it working in ur living room?

  • he has a power supply that plugs in to the wall, he just plugs the pos and neg wires into the power supply

  • haaha holy shit i have the same radio

  • Some NY private ambulances still have these sirens and some of the FDEMs.

  • I like that one touch yelp button. I can't find one like this anywhere. let me know if you want to sell it.

  • thats a old siren now olice et to choose what siren they pick

  • Did it sound like that in the nypd caprice back in the 90`s. Or how did it sound?

  • this siren was used in the entire NYPD fleet from 1982-1991. When the big body Caprices were introduced, they started using Federal Signal Smart Sirens.

  • Man I wish they still had these installed in the RMPs.

  • Were is the Coffee break button?

  • ed koch had it removed before it was installed in the rmp

  • wow that siren is old

  • what is Momentary yelp?

  • Wow that bring back memories, same siren in the last RMP I was in, PSA-1 NYCHAPD. You old timers should know what that means.

  • psa-1? You miss that old siren in your 1982-1989 blue and orange gran fury.

  • I remember on the show Paramedics Saint Vincents hosp was using em. this was back in the late 90's. it took me up until last year to find out who made this siren. does saint vincents still use em?

  • New York Presbyterian are the only ones that i know of that are still using the mark7's. There could be a few more out there but I have not heard them.

  • "Your father and Rupert!"

    Haha!

  • It was actually my wife saying "your bothering Rupert" (my dog)  He went nuts when I made the videos.

  • Oh, that makes sense to :)

    Nice video by the way.

  • Correction, PA 4000's.

  • In NYC, the New York Presbyterian-Cornell Hospital EMS units still use them, even on their new vehicles. I feel envious that my units use Federal Signal SA4000's, nothing like hearing one of those blast by you. lol

  • You are correct. New York Presbyterian keeps transplanting them to their new vehicles.(like myself!) not too many agencies have them anymore.

  • what is this SA4000 you speak of sound like?

  • I'm sorry, I typed "SA4000" instead of "PA4000". The PA4000's are the sirens used in FDNY Ambulances.

  • you mean ms4000???

  • I remember a Cops Show video clip of NYPD officers using this siren. I wish it was still on YouTube, but for some reason it was taken off! Anyone know of any more NYPD videos from the show COPS?

  • That was uploaded by youtube user: PURPLEPETE

    The user has been suspended and all his videos are gone now.  I would like to get ahold of that myself.

  • I agree. I like whelen out of all sirens. I have a SVP siren on my POV. I do like the yelp when you press that button down though. I remember those sirens as well.

  • Wail peaks and holds for a little too long, not sure if i would like it on my POV for fire department. Whelen is the best I think.

  • Code3 is much better than Whelen. I don't know why people like Whelen so much.

  • finally....thank you bro.....

  • HMM, I think that buffing is a personal preference. Maybe he likes NYPD and what they do to SERVE and PROTECT the thousands if not millions of people in NYC everyday.

  • "Hindsight" seems to ALWAYS be "20-20" on the NYPD!

  • ^^ MustingFan424 gets a kick out of bad mouthing people on Youtube, guess HE'S the one without a life. Shame...

  • DAMN, that siren brings back memories of the 80's!! I loved them on the NYPD's old 1988 Plymouth Gran Furies & the 1990 Caprices.

  • holy crap...i remember those loloololol
