It does a little bit...but for maximum hearing protection you should wear Noies canceling headphones.

As promised, here is the video of the 1003 I posted in the lowest mounted sirens thread. Decided to include the behind the scenes just to show how low this thing really is. Yes, I should have worn muffs, as the fro does not provide as much protection as I thought it would.

Hey Notre.Dame, do you have this video on YouTube by chance? I really want to watch it! Not yet. I'm currently in the process of uploading something much...longer. Some of you may know what I'm referring to. :wink: If not, you'll find out soon enough! That Thunderbolt just goes to show that they lo...

Whitehall, MI. Water tower on east side of High School.

As of today the "old" 6024 has been removed. Can't say I'm surprised with the new 8032 on the other side of the parking lot. A bit of wishful thinking on my part, perhaps it will be moved elsewhere in the city for better coverage. CoughNorthAvenueBeach. You would think there would be a sir...

There is another 1600 southeast of Hicks Road and Winnetka Avenue, in the back of the parking lot. There's also an RM-130 on Golf road at the pump station behind Portillos. And you know how much I like Portillos
