Sounds lilke they dubbed in a T-128. Perhaps Nashville shall receive the T-128's? One could hope.

Do you know if the Tbolt is still in service?? Yes it is. My parents hear it and sometimes the Sentry every test day. You can also hear the Tbolt in a YouTube video of a large tornado that touched down there in 2007. I'm not sure if they still use the Model 5 for anything, or if it's even operation...

Maybe they should gold-plate the siren and then charge the complaining homeowners. Problem solved.

Searcy has to my knowledge 6 Whelen Vortex's. The nearest one to Harding Uni would be the one located on Benton St next to UPS / Pro Med Ambulance. That particular siren I think is either disconnected or in need of repair. It hasn't moved since last year (currently pointing SE). The remainder move a...

THAT must've been fun...

I remember seeing a vid with 2 of those bank blowers running into a 1000 head. I bet it was loud! Don't ask me where I seen the vid because it was a long time ago. It wasn't on youtube.

Attack signal on your thunderbolt sounds downright creepy with its slow wind up and wind down!
Actually it sounds like a Carter with some growl to it!
