Federal Signal 2001-SRN, Full Alert: Huntingburg, Indiana (Dubois Co. Tornado Siren Test, HD) Video Clips. Duration : 4.35 Mins.


This is a monthly test of the Dubois County Emergency Siren System. Tests are usually conducted the first day of each month at 4:00 EST, weather permitting. The background sirens (Model 7 & STH-10s) preform two minutes of attack while this siren and other 2001s in Huntingburg manage to stay on for another minute while sounding a steady, alert signal. This particular siren is located on N. Geiger St. There are also several older, Federal Signal sirens in the proximity that can also be heard. Although the 2001 sirens have replaced the older sirens, the older sirens are to be continually used as a backup in case the 2001 system fails. I would recommend using headphones to listen for the background sirens. This is one of several 2001 sirens in Dubois County which consists of mostly 2001-SRNs. However, this -SRN is very unusually high pitched. I am not sure why the pitch is so high but I do know all of Huntingburg's 2001-SRNs sound like this. Also if you go to 2:17 you can see that the rotator starts to "hang-up" and the siren sits still for a second.
