Now, about that speaker array, can you get a closer shot? I can't zoom in enough to even tell what that is.
There is a closer shot under the far away shot.

What I wonder is, what is a PA system doing up there? (Should it be one)

It looks like the speakers on top of my church. Before Sunday service, the they set the speakers off in "Westminster Chime" mode. It sounds like the chime on the EOWS612!

Speaking of EOWS 612 sirens, does anyone know when FS first began making them and when they were discontinued:?:

[quote="4J25"]Went out to Cincinnati for my Dad's blood test. My Mom works in the hospital, and from her office I saw the Calhoun Hall Thunderbolt:

There was/is supposed to be a T-128 replacement for that siren on top of the building according to the bid packet for the sirens. As we have see, some of the new sirens have not gone where they were supposed to. So I would not be surprised if the replacement for the Calhoun Hall Thunderbolt does not go on the building. Last month when I went past, I did not see a new T-128 installed anywhere near there.

Here is a link to a video of it that I took on June 1st, 2011, test day

Have they installed the 2 I-Forces yet?

They're actually E-Classes we were told, and no they haven't been installed yet.

It's very surprising that they didn't install the T-128 while they were refurbishing Calhoun. But, as we all know, the Cincinnati siren system is somewhat less than logical. :roll:
