Really sorry to resurrect this old topic: I've been stationed here in Japan almost a year. I've lived in two barracks and an apartment building. They all have the same fire alarm system that makes the same "hi-lo" sound, japanese/english announcements, and whoop-sound. It's not a pleasant ...

Military Modulator playing music

I'm now stationed at Fort Meade, MD. About 50 feet from my barracks window is a modulator. It gets used daily for the daily bugle calls at 0630, 1700 and 2100. I'm going to post a video tomorrow, it's actually pretty awesome.

Long Island, NY

I'll be in the Long Island, NY area next week visiting family, and know it has one of the best selections of sirens that do daily tests. Keeping in mind that I haven't ever heard a real siren since, oh, 1995, does anyone know of a good town to look at?

Nice pictures. Do you know if the river has an ending point where there's only one head of the Whelen? Or the other head could be broken and needs replacement or repair. There are 3 installations along the Tempe section of the river. Only one installation has two heads, it's located halfway down th...
