Warren County is still testing today.

As many of you know I had a guy work with me sometimes on the sirens in Hamilton County and his name was Tom Gall. He was in a car accident on Friday and did not make it out alive. So keep his family in your prayers.

So sorry to hear that! I’ll definitely keep them in my prayers.

After doing some Googling, I found this article about the crash:

And this obituary:

How sad, he seemed like a very good man.

Sorry to hear about that! That's a shame.

Siren test for today is postponed due to rain yesterday and freezing temps today

[carexpertandy]

Hamilton County rescheduled their test for today, but I see cancelled once again, due to today’s freezing temperatures. They will just wait for the next test on March 6 rather than reschedule again.

The siren at New Richmond on the Fire Department is a Q-BSA. Just spoke to Greg Alcorn at Federal. Brushes are unavailable from Federal so I have to scout some out.

I am not sure why, but your reply about the test being cancelled wasn’t showing yet when I posted mine... even right after I posted. The same thing happened last week.

I googled Q-BSA and from what I could tell, It's the product number of the brushes that go in a Federal STH-10. If what the persona told you is correct, all you'd need is a brush assembly off an STH-10 since it uses the same brush. Here's a link to one of the documents. https://www.fedsig.com/sites/default/fi ... 202015.pdf
