Behold, my first recording of the year. So, a little bit of background...my original plan was to record a 2001 from a distance. The dim sky and moody rain would make for a great shot. 6PM rolls around and I hear nothing from the scanner. Siren tests are rarely cancelled unless severe weather is expected. So I waited and waited, and...still nothing. At this point, everything is soaking wet. Time to pack, they probably cancelled. My dad snagged along and helped me get everything back into the car to dry. I kept my scanner on just in case. As we were leaving, dispatch announced they were about to conduct the siren test. I didn't have time to grab my camera, so I whipped my phone out instead and this video is the result. I'm guessing dispatch was just super busy that night.
Apologies for the guerilla-style videography. Thankfully my phone's internal stabilization helped smooth out some of the shake. Other than that, the siren ambience turned out great. If you watch my last "drive-by" siren recording, you'll notice that the Model 7 is back in business. The rain and dim lighting also gave a cool storm chasing vibe as well. I might need to try another one like this again.
Sirens in Dubois County are tested on the first day of each month at 6PM, with the exception of Jasper which tests at 4PM.
Enjoy, and as always comment, like, and subscribe for more. Thanks!
