[Droideka133]

is that a modulator

[iddamatic]

@Droideka133 i think so...

[musicfreakcc]

Who is the manufacture? The closest siren to my house is made by Whelen.

[iddamatic]

its Kockum sonics. they also made pneumatic sirens and train horns.

[RainfallMint]

Those are even more alarming and scary than the Whelens we have here in Texas.

[E57Peter]

UUUUUUUUHHHH! Sehr bemerkenswerter Ton! So muss es ja auch sein...

[Frefind]

@RainfallMint I like both but in Germany are very loud sirens . WE are living in a small town nearly a villae so we got`nt so loud sirens but much sirens (ECN and E57)

[TheWitnesserer]

Compared to all the others, this siren is very disconcerting. Even Silent Hill's siren has nothing on this.

[Railfanable]

How often do they run the sirens and at what time do they go off?

[Droideka133]

Wierd signal, up-down up-down.

@hrdknox2000 I find most of them oddly calming, however this one is kind of annoying :(

[Schutzraumtechnik999]

@tubemaster2703 I understand, for some reason that is how they do it - we Germans do it more often. All I can think is what if attack occur and they not working? Although who would attack the Swiss?!

[tubemaster2703]

Why do they only do them once a year? Wouldn't once a month make more sence?

[Blaulicht500]

Das war mir klar. Nur hört sich das Alarmsignal bei der KTG-9 doch sehr merkwürdig an, obwohl es der selbe Alarm ist wie es in diesem Video gezeigt wird. Weswegen dann der große Unterschied bei dem Sirensignal??

[Blaulicht500]

War das der Allgemeine Alarm?? Der Allgemeine Alarm einer KTG-9 hört sich nämlich SEHR SEHR seltsam an, als wären die Defekt. Diese Sirene jedoch hört sich gut an. Weswegen dieser RIESEN Unterschied bei den Sirenen??
