So just imagine back over 100 years ago in some major manufacturing city the cheapest rents in town were next to the fog horn factory. Here’s another thought, back then the workers may have been called to work by steam horns, then work all day building steam horns, then end a work shift by yet another horn.

I bet your neighbors. Love you 😁. Thanks, great video.

Brighton Marina, West arm, circa 1983. There were no public loos so you had to shimmy onto a ledge surrounding a white round building at the end of the arm. So, 12 yr old me shimmy around, mid pee and unknown to me .....BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.. .the damn fog horn came on. I must have jumped about 30 feet in the air and how I didnt fall into the sea is still a mystery to me. I came off that thing, shaking like a leaf, covered in pee!!! Fun times.

Cool stuff!

Never knew the technicals on the source of that sound but I've heard it many times from light houses around here as a kid and love it.

The Diaphone fog horn is an adaption of the Diaphone used in the pipe organ which produces the 64ft sounds a famous example being in the worlds largest pipe organ in Boardwalk hall which has a 64ft Diaphone.

I came here hoping to hear it sound! Thank you for posting!

Fairly superficial explanation of how it works

Holy Grunt! this sounds Awesome!

I find it fitting that there was a train horn going off in the background for part of the video.

Sounds awesome

DINNER TIMMEEEEE!!!!!!!

Very interesting

😂😂 Nice

On old lighthouses, were these sounded 24x7, or only when there was fog?

Whats the decible rating from 100 feet away on the type F?

I dunno, maybe it sounds better from a long distance over water? We had one a few miles away in Lake Superior back in the '50s/'60s that had such a deep mournful sound. I loved going to sleep with it.

Looks nice and vintage.

This is fascinating. Thanks for sharing.

Is the horn at the lighthouse and how were you to blow the horn

I've loved the sound of tha badger horn sins I heard it in person it's on my top 5 with the lake guardian, James r barker, Roger blough and if it ever sailes again Edward l Ryerson

HUGE respect to the guy who replied with the same tone.👌

Awesome!!! Glad to see a video of a Master with those beautiful 300s!

SS Badger Vs Leslie A200 be like...

A very loud and very fascinating hobby. Well done. 👍

This reminds me of the sharks hockey goal horn gor some reason, I don’t know if it’s like the same

How cool it must feel to have a ship answer your call!

Where's the taco stand?

Thanks for this. I had the privelege to have a walk through of the machinery spaces when she was laid up in Lake Calumet. The engineer and I had a chat and he invited me aboard while the deck crew of my boat was lashing together our southbound barges for Lemont. Hate to see the old war horse turned into a barge.

Yes that's it that's the sound. When I was about 6-10 years old and it was run by the coast guard. Just fantastic excellent job. I thought I would never hear that sound ever again. Thanks.

That was awesome

A Master & a Captains Salute! It doesn't get any better!

I love working on the Badger.

That is just awesome.

Wow

So if the locks weren’t there you would basically have to go downhill in water and uphill in water? I’m confused as to what would it be like if they weren’t there? Just a steep ramp like river of water?

Hope your ears were okay, on the last blast you were hearing close to 150 dB.

Please lower the music so we can hear your voice better. Thank you.

I was here 2 weeks ago so this brings memory's.

It sounds like New Hyde Park's Diaphone

Thanks very cool!

Nice video. Suggest you turn down the music!

The diaphone has a new friend
