@@amtrak3501 I like some of the sirens in BC but I can't trust them as to how they test their sirens. When I contacted them about it, they didn't seem to know anything about it themselves.
Wow! Make me wanna record one so bad. We have a reverse wired one, but it’s on top of a water facility, so security is everywhere, not to mention that the whole place is surrounded by giant trees.
I wonder how far you can hear this...
Effectively around 5 miles
Battle Creek Downtown Michigan Roof Top of American Flag and Thunderbolt 1000AT Siren
American Flag and Thunderbolt 1000AT
Very true
Golly she sounds great! Awesome video Bill!
Lol this is not 1003, its a boy
@@acap-5043 shut
American Flag and Thunderbolt 1000T in Battle Creek Michigan
After taking a closer look at this it actually has a bad horn gasket, not a blower leak
Oh wow yeah just noticed that too
4/5 bolts are the best sounding tbolt
Two months ago, I tried to film the SD-10 on top of the post foods factory but it didn't sound off. I was so disappointed.
When they did the roll call on the ham radio channel, it failed yet again

I'm just going to go for it and I think you should too, that should to at the first Saturday for every month a 1pm so
8/10 port hurricane?
2t vs 4/5 1000T
Reminds me of Minneapolis

That's how I felt about GPW, it really pissed me off but I still managed to get a decent recording of it
Sounds as similar to an ACA Hurricane
Similar ratio. 4/5 = 8/10
More like a Model 2T to me lol
Get mad all you want. I don't like 4/5 tbolts
Not again lol. But cool though! I see the RPM was adjusted
This one has always spun at 2 RPM.
The rotator speed
@@wisconsinoutdoorsirens1250 Yeah. It hasn't changed.
Watch bills other video of it.
@@wisconsinoutdoorsirens1250 That's a different siren. Battle creek has two 4/5 port Thunderbolts.
What do you mean it sounds a little off? Sounds great to me
the pitch wavers around a fair bit. also if you look close, it looks like the horn isn't quite on all the way
The pitch fluctuates throughout the test. It changes ever-so-slightly, so it's kind of hard to make out.
Horn gasket is missing.
Nice! Sounds like a Model 2T to me. 👍
4/5 port Thunderbolts like this one are basically a rotating, supercharged 2T.
@@SETX_Sirens_and_Rail_02 How many ports does a Model 2T have?
@@EastDetroitMusic-Sirens3000A 4/5. Therefore, 5/6 1000Ts aren't genuine rotating 2Ts. This bolt is a 4/5 though
@@SETX_Sirens_and_Rail_02 Yeah I know that which is weird
Somebody needs to get ahold of Battle Creek public works and tell them that the flag needs to be retired
Well damn! I lplan on recording this next march
Oh yes
Totally awesome!!
Awesome!
Big Ultra Spicy Hot
Nice!!
