The Siren Board

No it's not on youtube.

Well I was able to watch level 6 but not level 1 But I love what I heard! :thup:

Just got back from Yatesville, and all I have to say is....

The test was AWESOME!!!!!

Both sirens sounded incredible (especially the Tbolt), and I got it on video too. The video will be up soon, and it's not exactly perfect, but still a great recording IMO

Got my video uploaded turned out great!

That test was amazing. That was the first time in a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time I heard a 1000T.


My videos are in the A/V section.

Nothin' like a 1000T in Attack on Chopper 1... unless, of course, it's a 4/5-port 1000T, like I grew up with.

Jeb, great restoration. And to the enthusiasts who helped with the installation, great job. Thanks for the photos and videos for those of us who couldn't be there in person.

I am very pleased to see Norman Thunderbolts that I have seen for most of my life starting a new life warning people in emergencies.

I just got my video up. It's in Audio/Video forum.

Link to topic.

Also, 10 minutes before noon. When I was arriving to Yatesville fire department. It's something funny I was doing there!
I screamed "P-50S ARE SUPER AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!" Then everyone turned around and looked at me!

Anyway, I had an awesome time there! I want to do this again! Thank you so much all for letting this happen!

Let me guess... Someone put a dual tone chopper in there and it's original was a single tone, or someone didn't put the right label on it...

Yes, it was originally a single tone Thunderbolt when it was installed in Norman, OK but it was changed over to a 5/6 port 1000T during its restoration. Already have one single tone Thunderbolt in the county (The Rock's siren), and single tone Thunderbolts have a sound that's rather boring and don't have that attention-grabbing "bite" that the dual tone ones have. As for the ID plate, all two-signal Thunderbolts had "1000" in the type/model information field of the plate, regardless if they were single or dual tone. Only differentiation in models/types from that time period were 1000 or 1003, no "1000T" label yet.
