Monroe County, MI Whelen 3016 Siren Test - 12/29/21

Settled on one of the most difficult-to-film sirens in Monroe County, this 3016 located at Luna Pier and Strasburg. Of course I had to get my trees (and better yet, PINES) so I set up along Luna Pier Rd about a quarter mile east. You can clearly hear 2001s from Bedford, the most prominent being the SRN on Crabb Road, which is really kicking ass for being over 2 miles away. There is some traffic noise but it could have been worse. I think it came out pretty well.

The wind down on that thing was insane!

From 5:06 - 5:20 is completely mesmerizing to hear, can’t imagine what the echoes that thing produced sounded like in person!

I like the 3016, when its using its actual controls.

That siren sounds like a dual toned Hawaiian Federal Signal Modulator. Right?

[@northernindianaoutdoorwarn9698]

I love the distance recordings keep up the great work and also I’m going to Gatlinburg Tennessee for Vacation with my family and I’m going to record the Modulator that plays Rocky Top

[@ArenSkreigh]

This is probably a dumb question but why do they sometimes rotate before alert/attack etc?

[@ArxCyberwolfPC]

I believe it's because the rotator is putting itself into a specific position before it starts, so it knows which way the horn is facing. They also do this before voice announcements.

@@ArxCyberwolfPC ...that's a great idea.

[@itz_coaltonnn]

@@ArxCyberwolfPC It doesn’t have horns. It’s electrical so it has a speaker.
