There are multiple sirens at the airport: 2 STH-10's, one near the cell phone lot and another on Loomis Road, and 2 RSH-10's, one on top of a terminal out in the middle of the tarmac and another behind a building on Airfield Drive.

I was out on the west side of town Pokemon hunting last week and saw 4 sirens:

T-128 at Mt. Echo Park
T-128 on Delhi just west of Roebling
SD-10 on Van Engineering (Delhi a little further west of Roebling - the T-128 was obviously the replacement for this)
SD-10 at Fairbanks and US-50

Is there a replacement for that last SD-10? If so, where is it? I'm not all that familiar with that area of Cincinnati and I didn't have time to drive around hunting for it.

I don't believe that one has a replacement. The T-128 at Mt. Echo Park should be close enough to cover that area.

Good news! Everything was approved today and the Thunderbolt at Kellogg on the water tower will be coming down in the near future if anyone wants pictures.

The one on Delhi near Roebling is only a mile away as well, so I'm guessing there's good coverage there between the two of them.

The siren system will be tested by zones so there will be a 2o second delay between zones. All the old sirens will not go off as they have never been programmed for a zone test. Pass the word and keep a listen for

Thank you for telling us! I seem to remember a zone test last January as well.

I'll see what I can hear. I occasionally do hear a 128 or two, which is surprising since my school is 5 miles away across the river and made entirely of brick. They are great sirens.

So that explains why the Thunderbolt on top of ATFD#6 didn't go off. I can usually hear two t-128's and the thunderbolt from school.
