Re: Fort Worth Siren Test.

Here's the monthly test from earlier this month. This is one of the newer Vortex units that has the 2030 logic board in it.

Re: Fostoria, OH Modulator

Re: Awesome Allertor test run

How far was the camera/recorder to the siren being restored? That's some impressive 'slight-doppler effect' echo.
