Re: Old Siren Locations???

Look into "Blue Valley Public Safety" in Kansas City. They buy and sell old sirens to communities and have a yard full of old sirens from the Kansas city area. If he's just trying to look at the sirens and get up close and personal I'm sure there's someone there kind enough to let you chec...

Re: can the design of the chopper/rotor effect the sirens output?

One thing I've always wanted to see is if a rotor with a size such as an STH-10 could be supercharged by some sort of blower. However I think a blower powerful enough to supercharge it would be impractical and uncalled for in a standard outdoor siren system. I'd still like to see how much you could ...

Re: How many counties still use thunderbolts?

Wichita, KS still has quite a bit of thunderbolts and still uses them along with many 130s. They honestly don't care about being up to date, and they wait til the sirens break before replacing them. Even for a clean college town, they don't seem too crazy about replacing the old sirens which is cool...

Re: HOR coming down in Hamilton OH

What's funny is that that thing has been sitting atop that building for over 60 years and it's working perfectly. Of course it might grow some rust and all but you should only work on fixing em' if they're broken. "Look how old it is!" it's not like anyone ever notices them except for us s...

Yeah but didn't someone have to turn them manually? By the way I'm new here.
