Celina, OH 2001-SRN & 2001-SRNB Siren Test - 1/4/2025
Went up to Mercer County again (quickly becoming one of my favorite places for tests) to get one of multiple easy dual-2001 shots around Celina. This pair is only a half mile apart, with the SRNB at the corner of Myers Rd and Grand Lake Rd, and the SRN in the parking lot for the Montgomery Field baseball diamond. Was a little nervous nothing would happen since it was under 20 degrees, but right at noon on the dot both 2001s fired up. Excuse the slightly wonky audio, this was more or less a test run of my replacement audio recorder and I didn't have it configured quite to my liking yet. I also dropped off my old phone in Saint Henry to get an ambience of their 4 (yes, 4) 2001s but it shut off early and the wind absolutely nuked the audio beyond fixing. Sirens in the county test first Saturdays at noon.

Hamilton County, OH Siren Test Ambience - 1/1/2025
มุมมอง 1209 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา
Grabbed this ambience while at the T-128 seen in my previous video. Quite a few can be heard, although nowhere near as bone-chilling as my Nov. 2022 HamCo ambience from the opposite side of the county. I set the phone used to record this in a prime spot for hearing the P-127 on the clubhouse at the golf course to the south. If it were truly still active, then I feel like it would be heard loud ...
Hamilton County, OH ASC T-128 Siren Test - 1/1/2025

Despite spending the first 3 hours of 2025 throwing my guts up, I sobered up enough by noon to head out to this T-128 located along Newtown Rd just south of US-50 on the east side of the county. It overlooks the Little Miami River and has a pretty big hill right behind it, making for some cool acoustics. Aside from Hamilton and Warren counties, I don't think anyone else in the area was testing ...
Augusta, KY Sentry 10V Alert Blast - 12/18/2024

Went down to Bracken County on a rather miserable rainy and windy day. Was surprised to see this had not had a proper recording since being installed over 2 years ago to replace the iconic 2T22 that used to stand in its spot. I went for the hill shot at the cemetery south of town and found this thing to be pretty decent volume wise. The 14V never sounded, which sucks as I had set a phone betwee...

Dropped off a camera on the side of the road near this Whelen a little bit north of Georgesville along Gardner Rd. Forgot to zoom out, so I included a few street view shots at the end. Apologies for the loud-ass truck at the end of the first cycle.

While I was at the Hook Elementary 2001, I had my old phone recording at a playground on the east side of town. I was hoping more 2001s would be audible, but the traffic noise from I-75 and strong westerly winds were definitely not in the sirens' favor. Towards the end you can hear the higher pitched 2001 (the one I was at) continue on a little longer for the full 3 minutes while everything els...

After Troy, I went to this Whelen on the far western edge of Franklin County in the small unincorporated community of Georgesville. I set up roughly 1,600 feet away at the Wagtail trailhead. From where I was, this thing threw off some decent reverb and several nearby Whelens can also be heard, one of which I left a camera at.

Haven't been here in a hot minute. This Vortex is at Denver Place Elementary School on the north side of town. The test was right on the dot at noon, and it sure sounded like everything in town actually worked. Sound seemed to travel well on this day, as the ambience seemed even better than it usually does. After this one winds down, it sounds like you hear a 10V or two in the mix doing alert, ...

Went down on this windy Wednesday morning to attempt a Fayette/Woodford/Jessamine trio. At 10am, we went to this MOD located off Mark Ave in the Highlands Park neighborhood. In terms of volume this thing was honestly not bad at all. Oddly enough, the closest siren to my house is also a Modulator 4016 located at a different Highland Park.

On this absolutely gorgeous Labor Day, Gary and I went up to Montgomery County to get an in-between shot of these fairly close 2001s. We set up in the parking lot of Dixie High School, roughly 1500 feet from the SRNB and 1750 feet from the 130. The SRNB and 130 are located behind the FD and at Fuls Park, respectively. Neither one was particularly loud from where we stood but the SRNB did throw ...

Mike and I went to Frankfort hoping to get a distant shot of the downtown 'bolt from the cemetery. It did not activate, despite videos taken during tornado warnings over the last 3 years suggesting it still works. Go figure.

    Either one of those Sentry 10V1T sirens is either a dual 16 port configuration or the single Sentry 10V siren is a 16 port. Its the most audible high pitch siren in the video. Either way those kinds of sirens are extremely rare. Pretty awesome to hear from a distance!

    Referencing what you said in the description - Clermont was SUPPOSED to test, we called them about 3 times that morning to make sure, and they toned out Batavia Twp. with two-tone, and I guess the Compulert may have failed, because no FSK was broadcast, and they told us when we called after noon that they tested, so I have no idea. Also, from where we were at in Union Twp, we could hear T-128's running 1 minute alert, and some running 3 minutes alert, and we could hear a few growl aswell... definitely a weird start to 2025

      @TheOfficialDorianelevator It really doesn’t, it sounds exactly like an ASC T-128/T-121/T-135AC/DC. This has a 8-port ratio, which is the same as the mentioned ASC sirens.

    • @TheOfficialDorianelevator
      @TheOfficialDorianelevator หลายเดือนก่อน

      @Jeremys-FansAndAlarms forgot to say, im talking about the 11 port ones like the S4A, S3B, etc, not 9 port ones (E57), but otherwhise it sounds identical to the ASC sirens you mentioned, but it sounds like a 11 port german siren due to this siren having a universal motor (thus spinning faster) while 11 port german sirens use a induction motor (at 50hz, so 2850rpm), due to that the pitch is identical.

    The STH-10 (Single Tone High, 10 Horsepower) is an omnidirectional electromechanical siren that was produced by Federal Signal over a span of 50 years. It proved to be one of the most popular of Federal Signal's omnidirectional sirens and gained a reputation as a reliable, effective multipurpose siren. It is an extremely common siren today despite being discontinued, a testament to its reliability and performance.
