Nice. Haven't heard one of these in many years. The small town of Tahoka, TX (south of Lubbock) had one for their fire siren. I was in a class one time at their hospital and inside the hospital in the classroom, it shook things when it went off.
Here in Berkeley Springs, West Virginia we still have one of these as the fire siren. I live right by it and hear it all the time. Often it goes off several times in one day (we don't have a noon blast though).
There's one in Whatcom County, Washington, and it's located in Lynden on top of what is now an Art Center. They set it off every New Year's Eve at 9:00 pm (pacific time). I'll try to make it out there to get it on camera.
Listening to one of these go off in my town right now (a fire siren) while watching this video, haha. The one here has the same characteristic metallic sound (I wonder what causes that??) but is much lower pitched and has a slower windup.
My grandparents live right in front of one of these. I was always scared it’d go off. Mostly because many nights I was jolted awake by it. Was always really difficult to go back to sleep. I must have experiences of the London Blitz from a previous life. Their town’s fire station stopped using it for fires a few years ago as the firefighters got pagers. Now it’s mainly just used for flood warnings as they live right along a creek that tends to flood in rainy seasons.
Burtchville township Michigan had this type of siren till about a year ago. They had it restored a few years ago then replaced it with one of the new lame ones that rotate.
TheVoiceTrumpetYT Aca p-50, but those are the loudest ones still in service. The loudest we’ve ever made is the Chrysler bell victory siren, which could be heard many miles away. The loudest one still in production is the asc t-135.
TheVoiceTrumpetYT yes definitely, considering the Norwegian ones are American sirens as well. The Norwegian ones are electronic speaker array sirens, which use speakers to transmit sound. The p-50 is an electro-mechanical siren, which uses what is know as a chopper to produce sound, which essentially “chops” the air rapidly via a rotor inside which spins. The rotor has square holes which match up with another stationary rotor, they match and separate rapidly, which in turn produces noise. You can get much louder sirens that way, the downside is that you don’t have the ability to have more than three signals, and no voice output.
TheVoiceTrumpetYT the Norwegian ones I believe are whelen wps-omnidirectioanl series sirens, which Denmark uses, which that company is an American company. They might also be federal signs modulator series sirens, which I know the Netherlands uses. I’m not sure about Norway.
Norway uses Train Horns, just like Sweden, but the difference between them is that Norway has three horns on one pole while Sweden has only one. Here's a photo: www.eigersund.kommune.no/getfile.php/3721847.1621.tqxuuuwrta/2000x2000tyfon_artikkel+%281%29.jpg

I love sterling sirens.
They look sleek and appealing, yet have an aggressive scream.
they scream 1950s to me lol.
@@kyezun Funnily enough, this particular variant (short aluminum heads) is late 1950s-1960s
@sipex6484 Thanks to your sterling siren map, I will be able to draw all the sterlings in the U.S.A!😂

Skip Goulet was it on the water tower? I think I may have seen it

This is the best one I’ve heard! Nice recording!
Rip birds
birb
Why Rip? They didn't di. RIP stands for Rest in peace if you don't know.
@@TheVoiceTrumpetYT You just got wooshed bruh
Or "Rest In Piss" depends on how bad you hated the person who finally died.
Who doesn’t know that? Of course the birds died.
Very healthy.

What's the loudest alarm you have in America?

The Aca p-50 looks like a home made one, but i bet it's loud. Does it beat the Norwegian ones?
TheVoiceTrumpetYT yes definitely, considering the Norwegian ones are American sirens as well. The Norwegian ones are electronic speaker array sirens, which use speakers to transmit sound.

That bird is never gonna be the same agian.
Saw a M-10 today
Cool!
1:07 for siren 2tone activation
Mystery siren with mystery sound.
What’s with the Sentry mount, was this one of Sterling’s latest model M-10s before it became Sentry?
What I was thinking.
No. This is a 1950s/60s Sterling Model M that was placed on a Sentry mount after being reinstalled. Most likely when the 7V8s were put into place.
So... A model 5 but a different shape?
They don’t sound or even progress sounds like model 5’s at all…
Ohio and Indiana sure have alot of rare sirens!
I've lived in both states and I can confirm
They have these in greenwood Indiana?
