Now's here what I don't understand about the last video (STH-10 in attack) That's gotta be an STH-10 or Model X or something, but the closest siren to their location is a 3T22! Take a look!

What's the deal?

That's definitely an STH-10 or TBeam in that last video.

In the video with the TBeam and the foul language, I cracked up when the guy complained about it getting louder every time. Guess he doesn't know what a rotational siren is.

In the videos from Tulsa, the high pitched sirens are Whelen 3016's. Tulsa has no 2001's that I know of.

The second video is obnoxious. I can't stand when people film themselves talking. I also can't stand people in backwards baseball hats. And people that think they know what they're talking about. And people that film sideways. Basically, I disliked everything about that video, except for the siren in the background.

The video with the baby on the other hand, cracked me up. He looks so upset, poor thing.

In that last video, you can hear a lower toned T-bolt around 1:33. You can hear people talking about it in the background too.

Also, I don't care what you say... Modulators are creepy sounding sirens!

Speaking of Modulators, here's a really cool recording of several of them, both dual and single tone, at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, OK. There's a really cool Doppler effect from the wind on the single tone Mod in the distance after the dual tone Mods wind down.

Now that is what Tornado Siren System should sound like! All that noise makes you want to run and take cover.

I'm not even gonna start guessing the types of sirens in those videos...obviously there's a Modulator, but what else? I'll leave it up to the experts

Sounds like a Modulator, Sentry and a few dual tone P-10's.

EDIT: One of the users that posted a video of the sirens said this:
"This siren (and a few more around town that look similar) is the one they sound for a tornado...all I know is it looks like a yellow cylinder, high up on a pole, with a "hat-looking" top (LOL). The other one is an old, civil defense siren (looks like a barrel on it's side and is red...is not in this video) from the 50's, that they sound for grass fires...it is located on top of the fire station."
