Federal Signal Modulator 8032B | Alert & Attack | Mt. Vernon, IL (Jefferson Co.Tornado Siren Test)

Originally Recorded 1/1/2019 (New Years Day)
So back in December, Mount Vernon replaced all of their 612s with new Modulator 8032Bs. The issue was that the voice messages weren't very effective with the old, rotating sirens. But not to worry...after calling the fire chief, we found out that the 612s were sold to a county south of them where they would likely be refurbished and put back up. Mount Vernon also added a new Mod at a park near the hospital last year, bringing the city siren count up to five. Coverage is still not the best but I'm hoping more sirens get added.
This siren is located at Veterans Memorial Park. The 612 sat at the same location on the corner of Forest & 26th. I suspect there's some programming errors since it doesn't do any voice test whatsoever. You can periodically hear two Mods to my west do voice announcements. One is the Time Square Mall siren which replaced the 612 with the weird 'wail' signal. The other is that brand new installation at the park.
Enjoy, and as always comment, like, and subscribe for more. Thanks!

There seems to be some sort of programming error certainly. I can hear a distant MOD doing voice before both tones, including the tornado warning tone before Alert. These certainly sound punchy. Hopefully they continue working on them and get the bugs ironed out. Nice video Brandon.

I personally wonder why this one didn't do the pre recorded voice... I'm assuming a bad receiver. Usually I find Modulators being activated on FSK tones, and not DTMF Strings, so that may be linked to it. Besides the siren itself, the angles you got are very impressive! And GEEZ, That thing is TALL! I also heard the largest mod you could get from the first Modulator line was taller than this. I retyped this 3 times I hate my giant fingers

Does the voice say the same announcement as the 612’s? By the way, that’s a surprise that they’re moving the 612’s south of the county. You would think they’d scrap them. Where exactly are the old ones going?

@DrpanProductions 5 жыл бұрын

Honestly those old 612's fitted with an UltraVoice controller would last easily another 30+ years. Siratone controllers were awful because of a few failing components according to someone I asked who has done extensive research on the Siratone controllers it was supposedly a bad capacitor as well as other issues. I'd rather take a UV fitted EOWS over a modulator any day.

I'm not sure on where exactly the 612s will be going, but if I had to guess it would probably be around Rend Lake. There's not a whole lot of sirens there.
