Bando Telecom Corporation: Reproducing the DSA & UV Controller

I found it interesting that Whelen's Master Distributor for Korea has an agreement with Federal Signal to reproduce both the DSA & UV controller. I thought I would share this here.

Islands of Toyko Bosai Musen Map

I was bored this week and decided, why not make a Bosai Musen map for the outlying Islands of Toyko? So I did & here is the result: a map packed with technical information, frequency ranges & modulation types. This mapping style is still a trial run for me, as Hokkaido didn't turn out great ...

Re: The Hawaiʻi Siren Map

Are you able to do a map of Texas please? The map is amazing by the way :D Thanks! I'm glad you like the map! I don't have any plans to make a Texas Siren Map, but it could be a future project. If you have any municipalities you're interested in, feel free to drop the name & I'll look into it.

Re: Whelen 29XX with some kinda cover??

I was on a trip in sevierville yesterday and came across this. Unsure what it is.. https://ibb.co/QN12Cp2 https://ibb.co/xL9JHS7 That's not a Whelen WPS-2900. That is a Microcell Cellular Tower used for 5G/4G communication & extending cellular coverage. These types of towers are commonly found ...

why are some of the sirens sound ranges not circular
There is an issue with the Google Maps app, causing the circles not to display correctly. Therefore, I recommend viewing the map in a web browser to see the siren coverage radius circles.

Mystery Japanese Dam Warning Siren

I was searching through YouTube for videos about Japan's Dam Warning Systems. I then came across this big red motor siren. I was wondering if anybody here on ARS knew anything about this siren. To clarify, this is not a Toshiba product. Toshiba manufactures control equipment for loudspeaker substati...

Re: Disaster Prevention Administrative Radio Siren Map

Neat map! I like the concept of using pins, however. This is just a suggestion: use regular pins instead of icons. Once you start hitting the 10K+ mark, it could start lagging quite a bit. Also don't get confused with Fire Radio, they use similar equipment to the stuff used on the Slave/Substations ...
