Shot on June 6, 2016. This is a monthly test of the Lander University emergency warning electronic siren. This siren is tested at the first Monday of every month at 9:00AM ET. I almost arrived late with this test since the GPS told me (supposedly) the fastest route to here but the GPS was wrong. I rushed quickly to get there and got there 3 minutes before this test. I had a cold at the day when this siren will be tested, but that cold didn't stop me from coming and filming this siren. The camera is actually leaning a little, not this siren (I was setting up the camera fast when I was running really low on time). This siren started on time! This was the first time I got hear a Modulator up close! This siren is located in Greenwood, South Carolina at Lander University (and next to a parking lot) off of Stanley Avenue and Crews Street.

Location of this siren:

I think that is a Modulator 6024.

I found out that Greenwood, SC has two more working sirens. Both are located at Piedmont Techinal College, one is a mystery siren located on a tower near the automotive building. While the other is located in the middle of the college and I think it might be an ASC E Class.

Thanks for the locations. I'll have to check them out one day.

Your welcome! And from what I know, the siren tests in the first Tuesday of every month. I've been thinking of recording these sirens one day.

The bottom cell on all Mods is a dummy cell, and it is used to bounce the sound of the cell above it into the air, and so on.
There are also a few versions of the Mod 60, which are the 6024, the 6048, and I think one other, maybe the 6020.
