How many t-bolts does Wichita Falls have? Also, how many of each model if you happen to know...

I saw a youtube video of a t-bolt 1000T going off in Wichita Falls for a test. I think it was near some sort of military base but I'm not sure...

Thanks!

I could probably record it sometime if I were in the area, but it has already been recorded :) Derek Thompson has a few videos of it as he maintains the town's sirens. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvNdIBDmmfA He also has a video of it in the attack signal. It is one of my favorite t-bolts! :D

If you can't find a motor to replace the one you have, you could always look into getting a different siren. A 3T22 would be a good option 8)

Please save that Mobil Directo from the scrap pile! It is in WAY too good of shape to see anything that despicable!!! :D Not sure if you're interested in having your own siren or not (it's a fun toy to have) but if you are, you should try to get it! If not, I'm sure another board member would go sco...

Great video :)

Reminds me of the t-bolt 1003 in Madison, SD! Same rotation speed and pitch!

Sounds cool! :)

It's great that most of the t-bolts are staying--nobody (even a non-siren enthusiast citizen) should have to stand hearing an ATI siren. Ever! 8)

Whenever you do get a chance to put up that stuff, it will be fun to look at it!

Sorry to be so full of questions, but I'm curious about the imminent upgrade since the old system had such cool and vintage sirens. BTW, I'm really glad that this t-bolt is staying!! T-bolts rule the world! :wink: Anyway, how many t-bolts (and which ones if you don't mind listing the ones you know) ...

How many t-bolts does Evanston have?? Do they still have all of the original ones, or have some been replaced? Also, were the Sentry's just for expanding the system or did they replace some t-bolts? Thanks They have 5 that I know of. They are all 1000s. I heard somewhere that they were donated by C...

Why did they replace the controls for this siren if they were going to replace the entire siren anyway? Last I heard, the Jardine t-bolt is coming down and being replaced with an ATI, but correct me if I'm wrong...
