Nice EOWS 612. How many of these does Cary have?

[TransitWeather]

@TspesVladD so far I know of 2 then they do have the Allertor 125 which I got in 2010 -erik

[TspesVladD]

@TransitWeather, cool. Is the other one singal-toned like this one?

[Trojans175]

I used to live there where was this one By Cary-Grove high school or Timber town

Well EOWS and Modulator do have the same sound card but the modulator sounds a bit different which i still like EOWS more but they are discontinued

[Branden2732]

its that a modulator sound card?

[crzy4MAC12]

scary hearing an eows 612 with ultravouce controls

[bulldozer950]

Im Hearing Several 612s and Several Modulaters

We have these all over town. I hate them. The sirens don't peak at a high hz like this one does, and it really doesn't spark any kind of panic or fear in a person. It's just like...meh...it's a siren.

[TspesVladD]

Awesome video.

[bulldozer950]

@TspesVladD i agree!

[SirenArchCar]

Too high pitched as most electronic sirens are...but with a very smooth wind-down.

@keoghjacob congrats didnt ask

[Siren1000T1]

Finally we got a single toned EOWS-612 in alert signal recorded. Great job!

[videogamer24385]

@Siren1000T1 cuz this is a newer siratone with the ultravoice controler. I guess maybe a few years old since these are still made on demand. maybe they just got new controlers and spit shined the head though.

[turbosound27]

@videogamer24385 I believe you are correct! If you notice the Ultravoice controller starts out and cuts off at 400/480Hz and the SiraTone at 300/360Hz, much lower.

Plus also, the Ultravoice is quartz crystal driven tone generation where the Siratone is capacitor driven tone generation. Ultravoice tone gen is much clearer and crystaline sounding, I think.
