Federal Signal Thunderbolt 1000T, Full Alert: Louisville, KY (Jefferson Co. Tornado Siren Test, HD)

[@ChicagoSirens]

Wow, amazing job at this recording. Best recording of a 4/5 yet in my opinion!

[@Stormsetter4]

Ah, those echos are pretty awesome. Too bad they have the delay on the FCTB's set too short, would have been neat for it to have a better wind-down.

[@DSRX100]

+Stormsetter4 Definitely! That wind down is just too short. I also wish Louisville's sirens did attack like in Paducah, but oh well, I guess I can't ask for too much, lol.

[@Stormsetter4]

Haha

[@jw870206]

+DSRX100 I can remember a couple of times Attack was tested, here. One time, apparently, was an error, and I'm not sure about the other time. But the Attack sounds kind of weird. The sirens wind up, and then do that abbreviated wind down instead of the traditional sustained wail. It also sounded like with each wind up and down the rotator would also start and stop.

[@DSRX100]

I've watched a video where that happened. Really strange.

[@user-sz7ic5rp1e]

+DSRX100 DO YOU HAVE A LOMK OF. THE AR VIDPE???!,!??

[@Elizabeth-ts4om]

Those birds were like: " LET'S GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!"

[@christanakers2755]

want to know why this siren sounds good, because Louisville knows how to take care of their tornado sirens!! I know this because I used to live Louisville!!

[@ItsthatRedhead798]

I miss hearing these during a tornado warning. Last time I heard this was back in 2011 at night time

[@vantaaax]

like this ambience that was taken in a 2011 tornado warning in pleasure ridge park louisville? kzbin.info/www/bejne/sHrYqWiogMehpJIsi=Dvbi104NSlEefeZp

[@d00mhound]

HURRAY FOR 4/5

[@Memerino-ly7yr]

[@-zgizmo224-5]

For anyone wondering of its condition, me and a few other siren people recorded this Tuesday Jan 10th and she was healthy sounded great in person

[@DSRX100]

I'm glad this thing is still there

[@SouthernRailfan]

That siren sounds great.

[@TheDrJ2006]

[@MrMacman98]

[@DSRX100]

idk, maybe five or six times

[@billyannwoodcock5647]

DSRX100 Ok.

[@atisirensofsouthcarolina]

is this a 4M, 5M or a 6M?

[@EastDetroitMusic-Sirens3000A]

[@ToothlessThedragon9]

[@TheMatsushitaMan]

That's a fast windup. Did they change the chopper level from 7 to 5?

[@ianssirensproductions7418]

Any updates on this? Great video

[@-zgizmo224-5]

Still alive and well, saw it Tuesday!

[@kayderrobh5931]

I love to see alert mode

[@aaronthaon2178]

i love tbolts

[@jareds7969]

What is siren polling?

[@DSRX100]

It's when they send out a command that "asks" each siren if it worked properly. The siren's controller will then answer back.

[@jareds7969]

That's quite simple. :D IIRC, Springfield, IL's T-128 system has a similar function.

[@FA50PH]

4/5 Port

[@UberLukario]

Are those FSK tones throughout the alert just Siren Polls, or do they have that many sirens in the county?

[@user-sz7ic5rp1e]

Is there a vid of a 4/5 T-Bolt in attack???!!!???

[@Tractorandsirens]

Minneapolis thunderbolt doing alert and attack

[@billjohnroe2962]

[@Remedy_333]

[@radiosnmore1225]

[@EASsirenVids01]

[@atisirensofsouthcarolina]

[@computerdude5566]

I hear you found our Siren FSK frequency lol

[@DSRX100]

+Austin Reising Yeah no kidding. I could hear the fsk bursts well after the siren test was done, even as I was driving lol.

[@whammyp50]

Nice Echo!

[@1000BT]

Is this a 5M

[@SirenGirl2001]

No it’s a 4M

[@MardekSirenen]

Great video ^^ Hi, I am making a video series, where I show and explain the US siren signals with the Thunderbolt siren type. I need an audio from this siren where you can hear in some of your videos. Can I use this audio file for my video? I would call your name in the video description.

[@DSRX100]

Go ahead! Sorry for not getting back with you sooner, but feel free to use the audio. Thanks!

[@MardekSirenen]

@@DSRX100 Thank you very much! :)
