The Siren Board

4/5 Port Thunderbolt at 3:45 in the video...

That's the most ominous sounding 4/5 port ANYTHING I've ever heard. I'm not too fond of 4/5 1000Ts since I'm a hopeless 10/12 junkie and all, but this one doesn't sound half bad.



Nice sig, by the way. That's one of my all time favorite songs.

Battle creek has 1 thunderbolt, 2 SD-10's and a bunch of those weird Vortex looking ones (not whelen)

Those "weird Vortex looking ones" would be ATI HPSS16-R's (not sure if I got the name perfect but it's basically a rotational ATI HPSS16)

Those SD-10s look like they have seen much better days!

The Thunderbolt sounds like it too. I don't think that most of those pitch fluctuations were caused by the Doppler effect from the wind. Still sounds great though.

I heard another 1000T or 1003 in that mix, along with a high pitched dual tone siren after the 4/5 TBolt winds down. That could either be a 612, a dual tone 3016, or another 1000T. I don't think an ATI can sound that good. Any idea what the other towns around Battle Creak have?

Most of the sirens I found around Battle Creek are mostly Model 5/7's
Their could be another siren unseen, but I think you may be just hearing the SD-10's

The other TBolt and the high pitched siren may be at locations that are hard to see from the road. I'm thinking that the high pitched one is probably another TBolt. I thought that I could hear one of the SD-10's near the beginning of the activation.

I apologize for the bump here, but I thought i'd clarify what was said about a dual-toned Whelen

They have four 1000Ts, 2 EOWS*612s, 1 remaining SD-10 (apparently there's another one but we haven't been able to locate it), 1 RSH-10, 4 ATI HPSS-16Rs, and a few Model 3/5/7s. Nearby Marshall has a Thunderbolt and a whole bunch of SRNs, Tekonsha Has a Federal Electric Type 1 and a model 5, Burlington has a Sterling K-5! Kalamazoo is somewhat close and they have WS-3016s, 2001s of various ages, and a few assorted oddballs such as a Fedelcode model 2 in close proximity to a 3016.

Can't view the video for some odd reason....
