Marina Del Ray Tsunami Alert test

Mon Jul 02, 2007 6:43 am

This was on June 15 of this year. I was going to post it earlier but forgot. Anyway, Marina Del Ray is considering a Tsunami Siren system and a test was done with omnidirectional electronic sirens. The tones were heard clearly but vocal instructions were harder to listen to. Video features Federal Signal's Modulator, American Signal's I-Force, and Whelen Omnidirectionals

Wow, how I would have loved standing in the middle of those three sirens then!

Great find!

AllAmerican FE; I guess the video has been taken down and replaced with the current video stories.

There was another website where they had audio recordings but I can't find it now. The three electronic siren manufacturers; Federal Signal, ASC, and Whelen were there with their siren heads raised on cranes and were setting off whoop and hi-lo tones in the video.

Edit:

It seems like our CBS affiliate still also has a "short" video:
