The Siren Board

FSMC #4

Briefing:
This time the focus is Boone County, Missouri. I picked this area because it has the threat of tornadoes, as well as having a somewhat large city, Columbia, and then some medium sized cities and some smaller towns. I feel like this will give you all variety and plenty of space to add sirens.

I might also add that the University of Missouri is in Columbia.

Starting time is 11:30 PM EDT and ending time is 5:00 PM EDT today.

Any chance for more extended time for this number 4 some us just got out of work and only have a half hour for the deadline

Sure thing! Time for FSMC has been extended to 8:00 PM EDT tonight!

Ok, it took about two hours to get all of the real system into Google maps using given locations, so my map will take a while

Here is my submission

System: 3 Modulator 6024s, 5 modulators 8032s, 4 Equinoxes, 5 Eclispe 8s, 3 Model 2s, and 32 508s.

Testing Every Wednesday at 10am 3 minutes of tornado signal and 3 mins of Severe t-storm signal

Tones Tornado Fast Wail/alt wail 5 min. Severe Thunderstorm Warning 5 min alert

Here is mine. 52 total sirens, 35 T-128's to cover Columbia and some larger areas of the smaller towns, and 17 T-121's for the smaller towns and population areas.

Tests every first and third Friday of the month at noon. One and a half minutes of alert, one minute off, then one and a half minutes of attack.

Great idea 4J25! I went ahead and stickied this thread. Looks like everyone is enjoying it...I'll have to try to participate sometime.

Thank you so much Trevor! I feel like stickying this was a good idea because it may attract more users to participate.

Well here is mine. After spending almost 2 hours siren hunting/looking up locations found on a news story, I was able to roughly map out their current system of mainly 2001's. Since this was my first map, I needed a baseline for coverage, scale, etc. I originally wanted to use 2001-130's and STH-10's, but after finding out they already have 2001's, and alot of the parks/schools have sirens at them already, i felt it would kind of be like cheating. SO I decided to go Federal Signal Electronic and used MOD II's and EOWS sirens. I may have gone overboard, but in my mind MOD's aren't very powerfull, so there are alot of full stack MOD II 8032B's.
