Minneapolis StateWide Tornado drill

[@fanawb]

Look in description for act. Times.

[@YoooitsSCARS]

DSA: testing Thunderbolt: SHUT THE FUCK UP

[@Bzons]

I love how the DSA are casually censored out when the Thunderbolt activates. Kinda shows how superior older technology is in some aspects.

[@fanawb]

Yes indeed!

[@SirensAndAlarmsOfNorthernIL]

Mainly that’s because the thunderbolt is lower pitched, and is 128dB at 100 feet

[@TheCasualSirenEnthusiast]

Do keep in mind they also shut off as the thunderbolt turned on.

[@aydanpatrick745]

Those DSAs sounded crazy there, There is also an ambience of a Whelen Vortex R4 when this 4/5 Port Thunderbolt 1000T Siren goes off

[@Elizabeth-ts4om]

The 6M blower makes this siren sound badass!

[@thunderbolt10031]

That 6M blower sounds awesome on this 4/5. Nice video!

[@fanawb]

It sure does. The one in Le Roy also had a 6m beautiful tone even though it was sick

[@hadishd-fr3wh]

Hey guys, some information here. Across the street are 2 DSA Sirens. Then over the bridge to the whole music club on Delaware street has 4 DSA sirens on each corner.

[@fanawb]

I believe that is correct

[@amberlynn6914]

Seems like the DSAs are more of a 'hey, the big siren is about to start' kind of thing

[@fanawb]

amberlynn6914 probably

[@sirenmn]

amberlynn6914 In normal monthly tests the DSA's are tested after the Thunderbolt.

[@SETX_Sirens_and_Rail_02]

Yes it does

[@d3ad.4gain]

Hahaha I like this comment. It’s true.

[@BRISTOLFORCE2009]

Sounded like a burglar alarm

[@ClayRanger143]

4/5 Thunderbolts are some of the best sounding sirens ever made. And this is why.

[@fanawb]

That would be correct.

[@Ikesandknifes]

This exact thunderbolt was featured in a news video with a eows 408!!

[@joelneiltrinidad6339]

Starts at 0:44

[@joelneiltrinidad6339]

0:45

[@d3ad.4gain]

This video in its entirety is beautiful

[@fanawb]

Sorry about the year late reply but yes it is indeed!

[@United_HVAC_and_Fans]

That is one raspy 1000t. Still sounds really cool.

[@fanawb]

the 4/5 makes it sound nice.

[@quentinquale1694]

😆 The DSA sirens are the fanfare to the King 👑

[@SETX_Sirens_and_Rail_02]

Those DSA's sound like car alarms!

[@grovecitysirens_GCS]

That thunderbolt just totally silenced all the dsa sirens.

[@madisoncountysirens4295]

EPIC! Love the windup. It has Amazing Echoes

[@fanawb]

Yoshifan121 thanks!

[@madisoncountysirens4295]

You're Welcome. Do you know about the new OmmiAlerts that were installed about a month ago?

[@fanawb]

Yoshifan121 omnialerts? I’m pretty sure we have not switched from whelens.

[@madisoncountysirens4295]

OmmiAlerts Are Made My Whelen. They are basically newer versions of the 2700, 2800, and 2900 series of whelens. Here is a video of the OA2 which has 2 cells. kzbin.info/www/bejne/i3OWqoKnZp5ppbs&t=

[@fanawb]

Yoshifan121 we still use 4004s

[@dinkindane]

The DSAs though

[@adamssirenadventures6574]

Oh my I love how DSA Siren is going so loud before the Thunderbolt 1000T 4/5 is going off too.

[@fanawb]

Adam Carter I can try to but it will be a very long wait meaning longer than a year

[@adamssirenadventures6574]

Fanawb Productions Do you think the tornado drill is every month everyday or what?

[@adamssirenadventures6574]

Fanawb Productions And where is the DSA located to?

[@fanawb]

Adam Carter no it is April 20

[@adamssirenadventures6574]

Fanawb Productions You mean they start tornado drill is every April 20?

[@bobo-wf1jv]

Every siren in the world .. should be a Thunderbolt, case closed. Great video.

[@fanawb]

Thank you!

[@trainsandsirensofilinmiwi2080]

sounds like a aca hurricane a litte bit

[@KiddBloo86]

What in tarnation was I hearing before the T-bolt? Lawd have mercy!

[@bkriegel95]

Meanwhile I was in Hudson, filming the ASC T-135AC (P-50)

[@SoonerStateSirens1]

Lol

[@fanawb]

Some extra info this has an a1 blower if you listen closely you can hear that buzzy undertone

[@kansasstatealerting2874]

Awesome! Sounds like a 6M blower.

[@fanawb]

It is! if im not mistaken 4/5 and 6m is a VERY rare combination

[@kansasstatealerting2874]

Fanawb Productions oh neat! I never knew that 4/5 and 6M were rare combinations

[@fanawb]

Yeah not many in existence

[@ayansiddiqui1394]

Holy shit!!! That is so loud in the bg

[@savagedude9689]

I really hope o get to record this before it gets replaced (I’m not saying it will soon, but it will in the future)

[@borkluchtalarm]

DSA's model: LOL.

[@garyhisgun4996]

Only the 5 Minute Alert Signal is Sounded during the Drill also that is the first time i heard the DSAs activate

[@fanawb]

Gary Hisgun cool i know the alert was all it did but still this tbolt is quite the treat for me because my school will not allow me to get the 1st Wednesday of the month

[@RandomTransits]

Where though thor guard at the background?

[@pennsy77]

They’re DSAs.

[@FA50PH]

Nice Catch

[@flyoversirens3704]

Those are some expensive pre-bolt warning devices. I would have put a weatherproof vibratone on the pole instead. People in a block would be able to hear it and it would do the job.

[@flyoversirens3704]

Just realized it's a building mount. Nvm

[@fanawb]

@@flyoversirens3704 yeah it is XD good thing you watched the whole video

[@zachj9359]

Damn those dsas and the Mods are Loud!!

[@ganon8109]

When the clouds came it got too scared and stopped

[@boxtv8959]

I've been trying to find it, What was the signal that the DSA's were doing? They sound mysterious.

[@ktg1012]

It sounds awesome

[@BraileaJean]

0:04 is this a lightening siren?

[@FA50PH]

Those are fs dsa

[@fanawb]

correct. stands for digital speaker array or something of the sort

[@aliultimate009]

Greetings :) I'm planning to start a project for a collection of warning sirens around the world by asking permission & giving credits for the original respective owners when using their videos. May i get your permission ? :)

[@1000tCSX]

Thunderbolt activates at 9:28

[@fanawb]

INcorrect it activates at 0:44

[@FA50PH]

Lol the video is only 8:08 minutes long 😂

[@deleteddeleted172]

Thunderbolt be like SHUT UP DSA SIRENS!!!!

[@fanawb]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[@FA50PH]

L M A O

[@KWCDesigns]

Nice!!!! How loud are these to you? I recorded a 5/6 1000T and ran right into my car! Lol so I didn’t really hear it so well. Would’ve been a cool experience. I wish I could’ve recorded that 4/5 up Calhoun Hall before it was replaced. I’m bringing my gear for when I head up to NJ for vacay. I’ll see what there is to record.

[@fanawb]

KWC Designs definitely bring headphones if I didn’t I probably would have lost a little hearing. I was about 100 feet away and I could feel the siren shaking the ground.

[@Worces2000]

Is that DSA the same as the FS Modulator? It sounds more like a burglar alarm and kinda cool

[@fanawb]

i dont know actually

[@livestreammaster]

Similar but not the same

[@ThunderTrain2930]

DSAs are scary dude

[@cosmocrodt1081]

its from the 40s. Old nice Catch

[@fanawb]

Yeah!

[@kansasstatealerting2874]

Actually this one looks like a 60s install, Thunderbolts didn’t come out until 1952.

[@coydog7902]

9:15 nine minutes to hear the beautiful thunderbolt? Do you guys think it was worth it?

yes WELL IM BANNED FROM ROBLOX

Since then i have edited the video down to only 8 minutes

[@keatonspence9306]

can you record the DSA?

Sorry im going to Deerwood tomorrow for their bolt

[@brandonbutchart5576]

Is there still 2001s in Minneapolis?

[@fanawb]

yes

Fanawb Productions where?

[@Thunderbolt_7026]

6:51

[@--marshy--]

what are those sirens going off before this siren

[@fanawb]

Dipper_McFartfacePlaysRoblox they are FS DSA’s (directional speaker array), basically a growl cycle from the dsa meant for the Tbolt.

[@--marshy--]

can you record the DSA in that exact tone it was doing

[@fanawb]

Dipper_McFartfacePlaysRoblox maybe

[@SouthernIndianaRailfan]

Dipper_McFartfacePlaysRoblox and a faint what sounds like a 2001

[@fanawb]

CSXGUY677-Trains, Fire Trucks and More yes we have lots of those

[@tycoonfan49486]

It takes so long to start at the beginning of the video

[@SoonerStateSirens1]

He started filming looooong before test time

[@fanawb]

No it doesnt

[@jerrybutler4141]

This is just constructive criticism not to be taken personally. While you did a good job in the video, I would suggest you edit out all but 1-2 of dead time at the beginning.

[@fanawb]

Jerry Butler yes definitely. I haven’t gotten an editor yet but next time I will try to do better

[@stvpls]

still in service?

Dsa's are imeadatly drowned out by the tbolt
