There was a post on here awhile back of a photo of what appeared to be an HOR still up on the Field Building downtown.

It would be tough to verify that since it is a tall building and even google maps is not very clear. Yes I have a youtube account, you have commented on my videos. If it were me, I would shoot for 7:30. They are pretty consistent with it. They could go earlier or later, but I have seen it done at 7:30 a few times. Not in several years though.

Yes it was I who found it. I really wish some one could contact someone who's in charge of maintenance and get the proper authority to get up there and see what it really is.

Just because you're offended, doesn't mean you're right.

Yes that really does look like a siren.
