This is a early omnidirectional electronic siren, the Whelen 2750 located in Dearborn, MI at Levagood Park. This siren was replaced in July of 2008 with a new Federal Signal 2001 and all of the Dearborn Whelens are being removed. This siren is Doing 8-12 port Hi/low for Snow Emergency. (aka Get your cars off the street, the plows are coming. It was sounded at 8pm and cars need to be gone by the time they sound it at 8 am.)RIP Mayor Guido, we love our snow siren, lol (mislabeled 2740 on clip)

This is the most beautiful hi-lo ive ever heard from a whelen! I wish there were more of these whelens around that have hi-lo sounding just like this one. I really miss this whelen...

It has been almost 12 years since this was uploaded and this siren was removed. I love the Hi-Low tone on this particular Whelen, and I really think they should offer this version of the Hi-Low tone again for their current sirens. That would be amazing.

They still do technically. The hi lo on the ESC-864 controller sounds a lot like this. I’m pretty sure that it is actually using the same controller.

@PlatinumEagleStudios 3 жыл бұрын

@@MasenMonster Yeah. But sadly Whelen discontinued the 864. The hi lo on the new 2030 sounds very different. I don't mind it, but it's not as good as this version is.

This is actually an 8/10 port high low and it sounds nice, but the newer ones are slowed down for a reason. Because of reverberation, it can be hard to tell from a far distance that these are doing high low cause they alternate too fast.

Hey Mike this is not a 2740. Its actually a 2750. Look at how many of the driver cells it has. It has 5 so that means its a 2750. Not a 2740. Not trying to be offensive just correcting. I am going to miss this good old siren after it gets taken down.

I'll never understand why they went ahead and replaced them instead of installing UltraVoice panels on their sirens. They could have continued to use whoop and hilo and still would have had the 360 coverage from these omni sirens. If they needed more coverage they could have just added some Modulators or Eclipse 8s at that point. Better yet they could have gone with Whelen and added some 2900s in and upgrade the existing sirens and replace blown drivers; WPS-2760s are just as good as 2906s with new drivers and a new panel... They ended up adding Mod IIs into their system earlier...

He was actually meaning in the description that on Dec 31st, 2007, this siren including all the others in Dearborn were sounding off at 8PM to warn people that a snow emergency is in effect. This video was taken January 1st, 2008 at 8AM which of course is gonna have some bit of lighting outside. When Dearborn uses their sirens to sound off for snow emergencies, they usually sound it off more then once.
