[Awesomeps3gamer1]

[nickman888]

[carexpertandy]

There is a siren on top of new burlington fire department that been facing east since August of 2010 and havent heard it since spring of 2010, but today it was facing west so i assume it was fixed, but wasent home to hear it

[mohkfry]

Nice video. Do you think they will fix it or leave it like it is with the new sirens?

[carexpertandy]

@mohkfry Just leave it, the installations of new ASC sirens should start soon, and it will be replaced

[97Siren]

@carexpertandy It's too late now! The city begun to install the t-128s just a few days ago.

[carexpertandy]

@97Siren How do u know?

[carexpertandy]

@97Siren Well i just asked Clayton Werden, and he said it isnt starting for a couple more weeks. Please dont make things up like this

[97Siren]

@carexpertandy sorry

[JAJone65]

I could have sworn a couple year back this was a single tone siren, like that woodlawn siren, did they change this one?

[carexpertandy]

@JAJone65 If you look closely, the chopper cap is a different color from the rest of the siren, which is a sign that the chopper was replaced at one point. The same thing happened to the Thunderbolt on Whitaker Elementary in Finneytown back in 2009, went from being single toned to dual toned

[amtrak3501]

the chopper cap looks like it was replaced, poor thunderbolt :( yeah sounds like a 5/6 port to me. never seen a video of a 4/5 port thunderbolt w/o the compressor. nice video, btw

[carexpertandy]

@amtrak3501 thanks. you can hear the finneytown tbolt at certain points

[amtrak3501]

@carexpertandy oh yeah, man that thing sounded creepy from a distance. im still debating on going back to Hamilton county in August or not. i'll keep you updated if i ever do come back for a tbolt, but i think were pretty close to having all the tbolts on YT anyway from that area.

[garyhstorms10]

Hard to tell with no blower is this a 4/5 Port or a 5/6 Port ?

[carexpertandy]

@garyhstorms10 5/6 most likely

[JPa311979]

The siren looks white. Is it?

[carexpertandy]

@JPa311979 Yellow, just faded
