Cincinnati Metropolitan Area Sirens

There might still be some older 1212s in Clermont County. Are any left?

Plus Monroe in Butler County might still have some 612s.

New Richmond. The EOWS !@!@ at BMOP is not working as I understand

!@!@ must be one of those rare models, huh???

On a side note, is there a updated map of Hamilton Co's sirens?? I'm still using the one with the 1212s on the south side, and, as I understand that's extremely out of date.

**EDIT (3 seconds later)** - I just found this one a few seconds ago, is this one more current? https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mi ... 38868&z=11

I think !@!@ is supposed to be 1212, and the shift key was held by accident.

The map is pretty much current in terms of all of the T-128s and 2001s, hard to really say about any old sirens.

Plus I’m not sure what 1212s on the south side you’re taking about. We had all of the old Fernald 1212s and a 612 in northwestern Hamilton County, and there was one old style 1212 in Milford on the Hamilton/Clermont border.

The map i used still had the fernald 1212 and 612 locations marked as active, but that Hamilton/Clermont siren wasn't on there.

I’m working on a spreadsheet & map and was wondering if there are any EOWS sirens left active in the Cincinnati area. I know there used to be, but i’m unsure if there are any more.

Clermont County, OH has a number of early 1212's as well as Campbell County, KY, and Dearborn County, IN has two active 612's.

So I just found this video from 2012 of the Hamilton County Commissioner activating the new American Signal system. I don't know if it's been posted here before, but either way, its kinda neat to see the operations center. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnBYpcQR2-o

That was the old system. Must have been taken a few years before and posted in 2012. They do not have 3 960 devices and two motorola radios

Video was uploaded on April 4, 2012, which I do remember was the day of the first test of most new T-128s. Were any changes made in the office after this date? Was old equipment still being used at all at that point?

Must have been as I am positive this is the old set up at EMA. Next time I am there I will take pic of new set up. Notice three 960's and blue ash had one and Hamilton County 911 center and Cincinnati 911 center. In total there 10 960's and they all disappeared with all the controls for the loveland sirens (Federal 2001) ANS/ASC cut most sirens down or half assed the removal and dumped them from a dump truck instead of removal for reuse like it was written up as
