Hey guys!
I have some questions about the 2001s that used to be in HCMD and YCPA. I fondly remember a system of 2001-130s that was set up around Northern HCMD and Southern YCPA. These were here for around 5 years, and then they were gone... It's a shame I didn't have my phone at the time I became a siren enthusiast. I remember when I was traveling to the Twin Silos restaurant and see a 130 that looked freshly installed! I even remember that it was pointing Southwest when I saw it! It looked huge on the pole, and I looked at it like "why is there a 130 here?" But like I said, I go back on satellite and I can't seem to find it! I remember another on MD-136 near the MD-PA line, yet again I was very confused when I saw it. I was only 11 at the time (and of course not on the board) so like I said, I didn't have a phone or camera to take a picture of it with. I also remember a time that I was at a summer camp, and heard the 2001s TESTING! IN ALERT! I even asked my instructor what it was and she said it was Peach Bottom testing.
Every time I go up 136, I look for that 2001 but never find it.
Another childhood memory of the sirens is when the SWA happened in 2018(??) and I'm thinking to myself "I bet the 130s are going off."
So, let's get to the point. Do any of you guys know what happened to these sirens? And why they were installed in the first place?
