That was the worst recording I have ever made. The tape recorder was dying.

I thought that it was pretty decent! How often does Circleville test their sirens? If I was in charge of the EMA there, I would do that everyday at noon so the test sounds more discreet. The wail tone would be perfect for tornado warnings as it means "take cover".

I actually like Westminster chimes quite a bit. Although the recording is low quality, the siren is nice.

I agree. Although the recording was bad, the tone sounded AWESOME!! It's quite rare to hear 1) the full test of that tone (most just cut it off after the first 2 measures), and 2) that tine instead of the newer doorbell-sounding one that most sirens that use Westminster Chimes use now.

Chances are that it's a Whelen
And if it's just about to die
Then it must be an ATI
