One of my faves, too. I like how the 2T has an almost synthesized sound, sounding like sawtooth waves.

More of my faves:
The Pierce, NE xT22+ M-10
The bolts&m10.mp3 file that was posted a loooong time ago.
The ?Mooing? Thunderbolt clip (go outside, 'ya big chicken-s#%t!/I.. I AM outside!!)

MN Statewide Drill

It'll be tomorrow at 1:45. Another one will be at 6:55 PM. I'll be gone for the 1:45 one but I will have my Olympus DS-30 recording. I will be home for the 6:55 one. Also check out the nice T-Bolt pic on this page: http://www.severeweather.state.mn.us/

As I mentioned on the vid, this brings back memories. My aunt Marlene (who sadly passed on in '97, bless her soul :cry: ) lived in the Millcreek Run townhouses, on Carriage Dr. I was there several times when the sirens sounded (for testing) and I could hear this one and the higher pitched 1000 heard...

I remember from one of the old Siren Recording Contests a recording of a Super Banshee being coded.

definately a T-bolt in one of the Indiana Jones movies, i think its the new one Correct. A very accurate recording of a 1000T to be exact. I've also seen many T-Bolts on tornado videos. The 1991 Topeka tornado had some 'Bolt footage, as well as the (in)famous McConnell AFB 2T22 clip. Also during th...

Fort Dodge is all Whelen. (Was 1000T's)
St. Ansgar (I believe) has T-128s.
Shennandoah is a mix of a 1003 (which did Hi-Lo for fire calls, first time I've heard a T-Bolt to hi-low, now used only for weather), P10/P15 and Sterling (may be others)
