Re: Cincinnati Metropolitan Area Sirens

Here's what I know about them: The one in Chilo directly replaced a Zimmer EOWS, specifically ZPNS 20. Not sure when that happened. The one north of Felicity at the intersection of 133 and 774 was installed in 1998, after the downtown EOWS did not work during the 1997 EF-3 (Felicity does have a bac...

There was a gridface Thunderbolt horn for sale on craigslist in the Cleveland area not too long ago.
Do you have photos, etc. to prove this? I'm curious which part of the system this came from.

The Thunderbolts that are still standing are all still up.

Re: What happened to Cleveland's old Thunderbolts and Model 5A's?

But of a bump here, but I did find something else lurking in the old Cuyahoga County CD system. Two things of note here: 1. Some of the old CD sirens were saved. No, I don’t mean the ones that went to other systems (which were Seven Hills, Independence, and Cuyahoga Heights). I recently spoke with m...

Re: Cincinnati Metropolitan Area Sirens

The 8-port siren we were hearing was probably Mt. Pisgah's P-127. I believe I also heard the T-128 to the southeast on Fair Oak Road. Pretty sure the radio simply didn't receive the activation tones on the Concord Road siren. That P-127 would probably be the grey one off Locust Corner, I think Mt. ...

Re: Cincinnati Metropolitan Area Sirens

The roof-mounted P-15 or Werden siren or whatever it is failed to activate... I thought everything was activated on the same "zone", but maybe the FSK didn't go out? One of the roof mounted EOWS*115 prototypes with the SiraTone C/B Controller is still active and Kurt (FireFreak57) got an ...

Re: MORE Alabama Siren Systems Silenced

Reverse 911 is not very good for short fuse situations. Repeated calls long after the threat has passed or people never receiving them is a common complaint. Reverse 911 is more effective for flood or fire evacuations. The standard alerts that come with all cell phones nowadays is far more effectiv...

Re: Cincinnati Metropolitan Area Sirens

Pretty sure the Mt. Echo Park SD-10 is history. Gary actually found that Fedelcode a little while back. Certainly an interesting mount, we've been meaning to get some photos. If you're interested, we could grab lunch after Clermont if we're in the area! That sounds awesome. I’ll probably be at the ...

Re: Cincinnati Metropolitan Area Sirens

Does anyone know the exact location of the old SD-10 at Mt. Echo Park? I am working on a siren map for SW Ohio since I am living down here now, and was going to try to get pictures of some of those abandoned SD-10's since I will be down in Clermont County for First Wednesday in January, provided the...
