Federal Signal Thunderbolt 1000AT (8RPM) Siren Test - Full Attack - Nashua, Iowa

Date: 7/1/19 Location: Nashua Police Department, Nashua Iowa Temp: 80°F Signal: 3 minute attack Units Heard: Federal Signal Thunderbolt 1000T (main unit/LV6) - 300ft Federal Signal 2001-130 (broken rotator) - 1,400ft Federal Signal 2001-130 (low batteries) - 2,800ft Livin’ that windy and obstructed shot life… I do apologize for both of those, but I really didn’t have any other recording options, so it is what it is and there’s nothing I can do about it. Anyway, Chickasaw County was a new one for me. Other people have recorded here, notably Nate and Aaron, but the catch was that nobody had recorded outside of New Hampton until now. So, feeling confident, I trucked my way down to Nashua’s Thunderbolt to see if anything would happen. To my surprise, there was another siren enthusiast there - Dylan, who’s from Cedar Falls. While I had not made plans with him beforehand, I went up and introduced myself regardless since I know a siren enthusiast when I see one. At about 10:58AM, it choked to life for a 3 minute attack. It also surprised me with 8rpm, which I definitely was not expecting. This sucker was pretty loud despite being a typical CD 1000T; it was almost as loud as Estherville, if not equal. Anyway, despite the drawbacks, I hope you enjoy the video. Chickasaw County tests their siren system on the first Monday of every month at 11AM, weather permitting.
