Re: Lakewood, OH: Federal Signal EOWS-612
Man, what a brief noon test that is! Hopefully next Saturday I can catch a chime test in Lordstown.
Kinda off-topic, but do you know if the 612 in Orrville works/is tested? I say that because practically that one and like two/three others in Tallmadge are the only 612s around this region I know of that utilize MCs.

Re: Lakewood, OH: Federal Signal EOWS-612
Orrville's 612 is a mix and match. It rotates for it's test, but that's just my hypothesis, I didn't hear it on test day from a block away. (1st Wednesday @ 12:00 PM)
I might come back here again soon, mostly to test a chime test. Lordstown is too far from me.

Wonder why it did alert for you Thomas?

Re: Lakewood, OH: Federal Signal EOWS-612
Lakewood's 612s and MOD utilize the MCP electronic siren controllers. Those controller's tone generators produce sine waves for its tones, likely making tones seem "soft". I could be wrong though.lilsirenguy wrote:Why is it so soft?

Re: Lakewood, OH: Federal Signal EOWS-612
Not my video, but here's a short one taken from what looks like the roof of Edgewater Tower, which is about a half mile away from one of Lakewood's 612s...

It seems to be much louder than the one in the OP. I wonder if the other one had bad drivers?
