Re: Finally releasing to the public...Oklahoma Statewide Map

Hi folks, I recently watched a tornado damage/aftermath drone video and noticed something: a Thunderbolt 1000T was downed. What's intriguing is that most of the siren appears to be intact, but the age of the 1000T suggests it will probably end up as scrap. Is anyone down there able to contact the c...

Re: New Big bertha picture found?

Has been known about. I thought it was new when I found it myself, but was quickly informed that it wasn't. It has? I've seen nothing about it on the forums or ever seen it show up when I google it. If it's known, why don't people talk about that it was in Lansing, MI when it wasn't even made there...

Re: Missing a test (AUUUGH)

I've had one run in with missing a test that I can remember- White County, Georgia, sometime in summer during 2023. I decided to hit up the 2001-130 at the Cleveland Woodmen of the World City Park, as it had a good recording angle and if it failed, I would hear a sick ambiance. Arrive there at aroun...

Re: NEW northernmost US siren; three sirens in one Arctic town, and even more awaiting to be discovered in the Arctic

Today, Cody Pearson told me of a Model 5 in Sanirajak, a town that I only found a 7V8 in. I found the siren, but while I was also looking around at more images of the airport, I found a second Model 5, in the same airport! Then, he got the cool idea to scan all DEW (northern Alaskan and Arctic miss...

I've seen this marked as a model b and a sterling little giant. What is it?
That looks like a 2nd gen Federal Type B to me.

Re: Is there siren graveyard in GA?

will they sell ?! absolutely not that's supposed to be a spare unit in case if they need to install one I might ask the government to see if they have such a machine, and I will definitely get 2809 down. County utility department wouldn't lease those for public use. You'd have to rent one from a co...

Re: Is there siren graveyard in GA?

There are no publicly accessible siren graveyards in Georgia, although they do indeed exist. One of these sites is McCranie Warning System's shop. I am also aware of several public utility departments having sirens in storage, including the one in Alpharetta, which has a Modulator sitting on the gr...
