For whatever reason, Clermont's test caught me completely off guard today, so I didn't go to a siren, but I noticed that the Nothin' but Net T-bolt failed to activate... I'm wondering if one of Clermont's zones failed to sound, because I didn't hear the one of the other T-bolt's that I can usually hear from my house either. I was surprised though that I could clearly hear a Banshee that's almost 2.5 miles away! Did anyone else in Clermont have problems?
The roof-mounted P-15 or Werden siren or whatever it is failed to activate... I thought everything was activated on the same "zone", but maybe the FSK didn't go out? One of the roof mounted EOWS*115 prototypes with the SiraTone C/B Controller is still active and Kurt (FireFreak57) got an audio recording of it.

Yeah, it sounds like several of their sirens failed. I don't know exactly how they activate their system, but it's safe to say that they probably had a radio problem. Someone on youtube said the P-15 in Pierce Twp. also failed.

Clermont County’s sirens accidentally went off last Wednesday, October 24.

Here’s a brief article about the reason being unknown. I had no idea Mobilcomm is currently their contractor of choice. The article even mentions the ASC CompuLert system.

Who found out the New Richmond P-127 failed?

Yes, Pierce Township siren PT-10 off of E. Concord Rd. (P-15) also failed the test yesterday. I could not hear the P-15 from Withamsville (the one off of Ohio Pike) but that may have just been because I might have been out of range from it or just didn’t hear it over the other sirens.

I did hear the grey P-15/P-127 thing off of Locust Corner Rd by a subdivision from where I was at though (I think that was the 8 port siren I was hearing anyways).

Sounds like all the sirens around Batavia went off too, someone said the Allertor worked. Hopefully when I’m back out that way in March the siren I go to then will work correctly.

The 8-port siren we were hearing was probably Mt. Pisgah's P-127. I believe I also heard the T-128 to the southeast on Fair Oak Road.

Pretty sure the radio simply didn't receive the activation tones on the Concord Road siren.

Where is the siren on Locust Corner Road? I have a Thunderbolt marked just off of it on the end closest to Cincinnati, but where’s this P-15/127?

Also, I don’t know if anyone has shared this yet, but Glist and Jeremy found a 4/5 C-Series bolt in Clermont County.

That P-127 would probably be the grey one off Locust Corner, I think Mt. Pisgah is way too far off from where we were located. I’ll try and confirm that in March when I’m down in the area again, either at one of the 4/5’s, the Banshee/P-15 or getting video of the 1212. I’ll likely attempt the other P-15/P-127 thing later, probably in the summer when I’m not busy with work or school.

Could I have an address or coords for the Locust Corner siren? I've scoured the area and only have a bolt.
I have a map of the county, I meant to share it with Firefreak earlier this week but totally forgot.

I was working on my Clermont siren map and noticed that the water tower in Bethel has been taken down, with no trace of the Model 5 that was on it... does anyone know anything about it?

Mt. Pisgah's P-127 is actually about a mile and a quarter closer to where we were than Locust Corner. My guess is that the Locust Corner siren is dual tone given the cone, and it's likely just a P-10/15 that Mr. Werden refurbished.
