Re: Kockum Sonics KTG-10 found in Strömstrad, Sweden 2004

where does it say this is in Strömstrad? all the videos say its in Lahti, Finland. Lahti also had some Pintsch Bamag sirens at one point, and i believe one is still up on a hill somewhere in town.

Re: Sedgwick County, KS Refurbed Jailbar T-Bolt Ribbon Cutting

Ask and ye shall receive. That ridge in the horn is a crack that was welded up, it was left rough to give the appearance of a battle scar, which I think is actually pretty cool. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/718184362192928828/1045482210704228392/DSCN3016.jpg l love how much this photo loo...

Re: AI Generated Siren Photos

I really like these, I always thought they look like what you see going to a siren in your dreams. Like you know it's supposed to be a siren, but no specifics, so your brain just kinda combines a bunch of them into one abomination of a siren.

Re: Lucas county's 5 am growl..?

Sounds more like a silent test, I've heard of places doing it in the early morning hours like that before. I guess it wasn't silent enough this time lol

Re: Cincinnati Metropolitan Area Sirens

Back in October, I posted that the T-128 in Greenhills appeared to be gone once again, as it was no longer next to Bargains and Buyouts on Enfield St. I rode through on Winton Road this morning, and saw one at a new location between the Community Building (where their old Thunderbolt used to sit at...

Is it still active?
I believe that San Bernardino's system has been dead for quite a long time.

Re: American sirens in different countries

Another one to mention is the massive Koeberg Nuclear EPZ system outside of Cape Town, South Africa. The siren coverage is insanely good in the Melkbosstrand and Bloubergstrand areas of Cape Town. Modulator 6024s on almost every block. Theres another foreign nuclear EPZ with American sirens however,...

Greenland has some smaller omni Whelens and some mechanicals that...

Re: American sirens in different countries

Istanbul sirens may be synthesized, as I kind of hear a 9/10 port siren in the background before the 500, but i know that Istanbul does indeed have 500-108(s) When the 500 in Marshfield, Wisconsin was active it did not have such a slow windup, so you may be right. Video of the Marshfield 500: https...

Re: American sirens in different countries

I'm fairly certain that the sirens in the Istanbul video are synthesized, they have a sound quality that doesn't quite match the rest of the video. Also, the Kuwait City Modulators are part of a nationwide system that replaced the only known installations of Thunderbolt 7000s. There's a few videos f...
