Sounds like a SVP SA-450 Electronic Siren. I am curious as to what mechanical siren it is...any chance of a close up of it the next time it is out?

@rykember11 Yep, got some good stills of the truck, I was trying to figure it out myself. I'll zoom in on the pic and upload it for you n 911caddy tonight.

@911caddy I did mate, sent it to you and a couple others as a message about 12hrs ago. See if it's in my uploads.

Sounds like a Federal Signal C5 siren to me.
