Re: my small sirens

Nice collection there! Any idea on age for the F326? It can be seen on the ad from 1923: I have no idea on the age of the F326, but that ad does give me an idea. I tested the B9 and the A this afternoon. Both run like a champ, but the B9 tipped over and knocked stuff off my dresser do to the motor ...

Re: About Atlanta's old system...

Sorry to bump this topic, but a good ol' ATL native *cough*Brendan*cough* found a former Model 5 mount.

It's located on top of an abandoned building at the intersection of Alabama & Forsyth.

After walking around the downtown area, I decided to visit some defunct/former CD siren locations that survived Katrina (courtesy of Brendan W) ...

Re: Cobb County Georgia Siren #19 Tbolt 1000T (BROKEN ROTATOR)

Nice to see that this beast still stands.

Took a video of it a little while back, and it sounds sweet even with no rotation. :D

The siren isn't that loud today, well at least in my Vortex experience.

Whelen Vortex R4 - Decatur, GA

EzBgdBRO9BE Came home from school about 10 minutes before the test, and I decided to grab my camera and tripod, but could not find any hearing protection. The siren is only 2 blocks from my house, so it only took like 30 seconds to get there. I decided to get a little close for comfort with the ang...

Thunderbolt 1000T New Years blast



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qc90zEZ-lOQ

After owning a thunderbolt for over 2 years and wanting to do a new year's blast for quite some time, I finally pulled it off.

This is also the first time in a very long time that this siren has gotten to run.

:TBolt: Happy New Years! :TBolt:

Re: Lowest mounted Siren in US

2T22 and Darley Siren in Hot Springs, South Dakota. The reason for the low mounting is because they are on the top of a HUGE hill. http://treace.smugmug.com/photos/i-xvQZP7T/0/L/i-xvQZP7T-L.jpg http://treace.smugmug.com/photos/i-xNzJ27c/0/L/i-xNzJ27c-L.jpg http://treace.smugmug.com/photos/i-KDbkjs3/...
