FS&S 3T22 - Short Attack - Frederick, OK

Please use my videos with my permission.
After about two months of just sitting around, I thought I’d finally go out and record something. By something, I mean something right down the road from my house. I decided I wanted to come back to this 3T22 to get one of the numerous cool shots you can get on this unit. I was set up roughly 2 blocks away, near the middle school.
I was hoping to hear some Model 2T’s, as I’ve heard very clearly from this area when I was going to school here. Unfortunately, they were inaudible today. The closest Model 2T to where I was at failed, and also failed all 8 activations during the Tornado Warnings we had here back in late April.
Tillman County Emergnecy Management tests the outdoor warning sirens in Frederick on the 1st Wednesday of every month @ 12PM, weather permitting.

That shot is fire. I love the 3T22s with the GE motors which I believe this one is because the pitch of it. Well, at least the 3T22As. The 3T22Bs are often lower but yeah. Also I saw in the description that the Model 2Ts were not audible. I heard a 2T start up right before this one did.

Yeah, this shot was sort of a last minute resort. I’m glad I decided to stay here though, the shot definitely looked pretty cool in my opinion. I’ve wanted to get this shot for years and finally had the opportunity to do it. The sun wasn’t in my way today so it all worked out fortunately. The 2T firing up before this was the one along Calla Avenue on the east side of town. The closest one to where I was at failed, as it typically does.
And yeah, this is a GE one. Installed in 1963, so it’s an older Federal Sign & Signal one. Thanks for the compliment!

@@brodiessirenproductions At least you didn't have to deal with the sun because either the exposure is good but the sun is in the way so you can't see or you can see fine but the exposure is ass. It's pretty difficult to find a middle lol.

It sounds oddly high pitched
Like its overpowered

This one’s got a GE motor on it. GE 3T22’s typically sound a tad bit higher pitched than normal.
