Federal Signal 2001-DC and Model 5/7 *Failed Test* (Wakeman, Ohio)

i tried record 2001dc 3 time they wont go off !!!

They didn't mount the 2001-SRN in and underneath the water tower like they had the Thunderbolt. Instead, they put it on a pole near the water tower.

[fordrallyesportfan]

There used to be a Thunderbolt mounted on a water tower not too far from where I live. The city replaced it several years back with a 2001-SRN.

Say Evan: did you call the EMA office to let them know about this problem.

[Schutzraumtechnik999]

sorry but FS's 2001s are like hookers - they need to be on a pole. I hate how she is mounted here:(

[littlesirenboy]

That stinks Why won't they go off

[EvanToTheFutureDude]

I have no idea. They said it would go of that day. Probably the cold weather. Different cities/counties have different restrictions on the weather and temperature for the sirens to be set off.

@EvanToTheFutureDude Because they have just re-painted the water towr and Model 5 they might have dis-connected them so they didnt go off while they were being painted. they might have forgotten to re-connect them

[crazywarriorman]

Told you to go see that M-5 lol.

[EvanToTheFutureDude]

You did? Haha, okay. :)

I got some pictures.

Pretty uncommon to find 2001s on water towers!

[EvanToTheFutureDude]

Yep. Pretty rare. I did see a 2001-DC today on a antenna tower. Model 5/7's seem to be the most common sirens on watertowers.

[carexpertandy]

It seems to also be common to find STH/STL-10s on water towers as well.

[soccerdude7330]

Dang bad luck :(

Well hey don't feel bad, I wasn't able to record any sirens today either. Oh well.

[EvanToTheFutureDude]

I know. I got some pictures of a Sterling M-5/M-10.

[lildil39485]

:( i know how you feel

[EvanToTheFutureDude]

Yep. Its my third siren failure.

[Siren1000T1]

How sad. It would be cool to hear them both at the same time.

[EvanToTheFutureDude]

Yeah, i agree.
