you hear the Model 5 (bareley even tho it is only like a few bloocks away) 2 2001s, a tbolt and others. I love the wind up!

Very sweet. The combined spin-downs of the sirens farther off almost sounded melodic.

Do you know whether the last one to wind down is a Model 2?

Initially I thought it to be one of those higher-pitched T-128's; but IIRC after looking at a map of your county, you don't have those(???)

Gonna listen once more......

must be nice to hear so many siren from your porch! Nice vid!

There are no T-128s or Model 2s in topeka, Topeka has the following sirens.
9 Thunderbolts (non-1003)
4 Thunderbeams
3 Model 5s
4 STL-10s
4 2t22s
2 500ATs
13 2001s

The last wind down sounds downright creepy! I love it!

Given those options, the one I questioned (i.e. had a c-sharp tone to it and a quick spin-down) might be one of your T-Bolts. I rule out a 2T22 because it didn't sound dual-toned and its downspin is very slow.

Incidentally, I heard the other of your county test vids, and that one, as the one here, features one siren sounding a *deep* F-major-like note (T-Bolt most likely).

Somewhere in mid-recording, it seemed (to my ears) to simply crap out, as it sounded like an abnormally ultra-quick downspin. This is absent in the recording offered in the thread discussed here.

Am I right in thinking that there may have been a malfunction somewhere?

If you are talking about the 1st video (the other one) yes during the middle it sounds like the tbolt like the blower shut off...i did how ever tell out EM guy.

[SirenMadness]

Those are some of the best harmonics I've heard of a siren-system.

[PhRed]

And the dog in your front yard was most cooperative when told to "Shut it!".

I hate this city and neighborhood and i want to move..the only problem is i wouldnt hear that nice sound of all dem sirens. I hear like 1 tbolt, 2 2001s, a model 5 and about 2-3 unknown sirens.
