Went out today for Madison County's siren test, and decided to go for this siren up on Green Mountain, as it's one of only a five or so known 2001-130s in the county. This one is also one of the newer 2001s in the county, having been installed sometime between 2013 and 2016 to replace a 2001-SRN on the same pole.
Unlike the rest of the county, the EMA chose to install the 2001s up on Green Mountain on concrete poles. It will honestly be interesting to see if they choose to use concrete poles for the new sirens or not.
Anyways, this is a pretty standard Madison County short alert test followed by a silent test of the 2001s to let their rotators get good and lubricated. Annoyingly, while the siren was sounding, a cement truck rolled past getting in the way of my shot. Suppose that's kinda to be expected, but this was also the best place for me to record from.

Madison County, AL tests on the 1st Wednesday of every month at noon, weather permitting. If the test is unable to be conducted on the 1st Wednesday, it's then delayed to the 2nd Wednesday of the month at noon, weather permitting.
