Does anyone know of any EOWS sirens that still do SiraTone chimes?

Hello, I do apologize for anything I do that is considered wrong, as I am fairly new to the ARS.

Recently, EOWS sirens have been becoming more rare and the chimes on EOWS sirens used to do has been becoming more uncommon too. I am curious, and would like to know if any EOWS sirens out there still do chimes (Daily/Monthly/Yearly). I know for a fact a 115 in Berkeley, Illinois does chimes. But are any locations still known? Ohio used to have a lot of 612 sirens and I know quite a bit are still standing. But any location of a EOWS siren (That does chimes.) would be greatly appreciated.

Although not technically EOWS sirens per se, Westland, MI's Whelen 2800's use Federal's controls, and they do Westminster every Saturday at noon.

Grove, OK did long ago, maybe still does on a 612. Sounded VERY broken about 10 years ago.

If Lordstown, Ohio still has their system of 612's, they did full chimes on a daily basis if I remember correctly.
