Re: Whelen European tone sets

Interesting. I would think Fort Worth would be better off with a alternate tone set, considering all they do for tests is 10 seconds of Wail ha. But anyway, the alternate tones appear to have a longer range.

Yes I did, from EWSRules. I got an E-969 encoder, and I also am hoping to get an E-2010 encoder as well from Magnum Electronics.

Whelen European tone sets

In a scenario (eg McKinney TX) where USA uses European tone sets, is there a special cabinet for those or do they specially replace the original tones on the cabinet with European ones and just send out normal DTMFs?

Turkey Point Florida Whelens

In many Turkey Point videos on Youtube for their Whelen siren system, I've noticed the DTMF chain includes a beep after the voice message. What is that beep for?

Re: Help Finding Byron Exelon sirens

This is the P-15 in someone's backyard. It's BY-18. It's by the cemetery just outside Oregon.

Re: Help Finding Byron Exelon sirens

And a little fact I found out, the siren system is activated by the Byron Police Department, yet the E-class sirens at White Pines and Louden Park are activated by the campsite rangers. Weird, huh?

Re: Help Finding Byron Exelon sirens

Still not seeing the one on 2. Also, I trust you that there's an E Class in White Pines Park, but I can't find it in Google Earth. And there's one more after that I'm missing somewhere towards the southern end of the system. Here's the one in White Pines. It's in the Cedar Ridge campground. bandica...

Did you find the one at L...
