Sick sirens!

Sun Apr 26, 2015 8:33 pm

We've all heard them, so why not make a thread about them? I recently found some sick or malfunctioning siren videos and thought I'd share them:

This was one of the old Allertors installed in Manitowoc back in 1975. In the video it is running alot slower than normal. It was removed in 2008 & replaced with a T-128. This video is by Uwtitanfan

Mendon MI's sick 1000T which each time I have been here the pitch always fluctuates. Packs a punch tho, always wondered if it has a 5M blower

In my opinion, I think there way too many 2001's in Indiana!
