Thunderbolt 1003B + P15 Bonus SWA Full Attack (Lenox IA)

[@IowaSirensProductions]

According to enthusiasts, apparently this version of the Thunderbolt is pretty rare which i didn't know. Also my first Thunderbolt test i've been too.

[@Am_ati14]

Chances are 1003SB or 1003ASB uses a C/B Series Blower

[@Am_ati14]

Because if 1003B that stands for Triple Phase (B)

[@IowaSirensProductions]

@Am_ati14 the 3 just means thats the warning signals it can do. Alert, attack, hi lo.

[@SNIXC]

@@Am_ati14wrong. 1003A = 3 phase 1003B = 1 phase 1003ASB = B series 3 phase BSB = b series 1 phase 1003A/B: normal rotator 1003ASB/BSB: b series.

I love the old Thunderbolts

[@SirensandThunderbolts1003]

Nice! It also seems the agastat may be set a wee bit short because at some points you can see the horn stop rotating for a brief moment when It winds down in the attack signal.

[@IowaSirensProductions]

Yeah, I noticed that instantly. I thought that wasn't normal. It even sounded like the blower stopped Irl.

[@Godzilla20191]

B series are very rare there’s only like 5 active (or very dead also not including privately owned thunderbolts like Christopher’s)

[@KadenStenka]

Iowa and Nebraska do they're statewide tornado drill's the same day and time

[@MidwestSirenProductions]

Sounds like both Penatrators need the start & run caps replaced.

[@IowaSirensProductions]

Yeah it does really sound like that. Reminds me of Earlham.

[@HSETM]

I got the EAS too, but that was it.

[@IowaSirensProductions]

Because West com has private frequency I think.

[@HSETM]

@@IowaSirensProductions WestCom didn't sound at all.

[@IowaSirensProductions]

@HSETM even if it did I'm pretty sure you wouldn't be able to hear it.

[@useridk58777]

sound like 6m blower

[@IowaSirensProductions]

This unit is from 1980, it's a 4M blower. These B series only lasted from 1980 to 81 or 2.

[@useridk58777]

@@IowaSirensProductions oh i thought its 6m blower. it almost sound like 6m blower

[@TheSirenSeeker]

What the hell is up with that P10 LOL

[@IowaSirensProductions]

Lol idk sounds like it's dying

[@MidwestSirenProductions]

Sounds like a set of dying start/run capactitors

[@1000BT]

the p15 has a face

[@IowaSirensProductions]

Yeah when they installed it they probably did that.

[@Godzilla20191]

OH YEA IT DOES

[@1000BT]

[@IowaSirensProductions]

It used to when it was used for firecalls. They were trying to fix it so they can use it for HI lo again.
