I am the one that said the 2001 is used as a fire siren.... I will have to watch the video when I get home this morning to find out what you heard. As for sirens in the area.... Hershey has 2 STL-10's, Union Deposit has an SD-10, West Hanover Township has a Whelen 2804 at the station on Route 39, a Siratone 115 at thier main station in Manada Hill and a Whelen 2804 at thier Pikestown Road station. Without seeing the video I can't say for sure.... other than maybe Hummelstown bought a new siren or something. I will have a listen when I get home and if it is indeed a new siren in Hummelstown than I will drive down there to find it!! As for activation frequenices.... it is hard to say anymore.. Dauphin County uses 33.80 for fire dispatchs.. or they did when I still lived in the area. Cumberland County (where New Cumberland is) uses an 800mhz system but might simulcast on 46.06 because I can still hear Cumberland on 46.06 at work (we border Cumberland County). The DTMF tones you hear on 33.80 are to activate Londonderry's siren and Hummelstown's siren for fire calls. I can tell you this.. I used to work 6 miles from Londonderry's siren and whenever 54 had a fire call (especially at night) that thing could blow me across the parking lot!!!MisterTwister55 wrote:I went out to the 2001 that somebody said was used as a fire siren. It didn't go off for the noon test, but a siren about 300 yards away did.
