CONGRATULATIONS Shax, it is your turn now! :)

It is indeed and OLD fashioned telegraph machine.

Um, thanks, Niecarrah... :confused:
I'm sorry, but I've already jumped the gun and posted a new pic... :thud:

No Worries!

I'll risk falling in to the trap......

.... a World War 1 foghorn?

Shax · January 14, 2010, 03:35:38 AM

Not a foghorn...and what trap? :muahaha:

Niecarrah · January 14, 2010, 12:07:48 PM

Is that Hitler in the pic?

Temmu · January 14, 2010, 06:21:44 PM

i already posted "public address system" ... is it?

warning sirens or horns as it were that could be placed around the city to sound an alarm... incoming!!

Shax · January 14, 2010, 09:08:24 PM

Not Hitler (Emperor Hirohito, actually), nor a PA system.

R-C, you're getting warm, but not quite there....

R-C · January 15, 2010, 12:57:43 AM

um used to signal the troops to fire the big guns?

Shax · January 15, 2010, 04:25:15 AM

In a fashion, but not directly...

R-C · January 15, 2010, 10:30:09 PM

to announce to the troops to gather to march? or to come to attention for something

Shax · January 16, 2010, 03:53:52 AM

Clue: It's the opposite to a PA system...not what it transmits....

Niecarrah · January 16, 2010, 06:41:03 AM

a receiver of sorts

R-C · January 16, 2010, 06:49:55 AM

it somehow listens for incoming planes or bombs or other weapons of destruction?
