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!

birds: "hm..."
*siren activates*
birds: *removes one earbud* "what"
They removed their earbuds at 0:53
I guess because it's not rotating, they have a late response.
That thing honestly looks like piled up mentos
IKR?! I think their kebabed pills
Looks so modern! Especially with the flatter cells!
cells or mentos
Imagine waking up to this in the morning seeing lighting and a greeen sky😮
Modulators have to be one of my favorite sirens
@ITZ JACOB -_- What if that's just his opinion?
Mine too! I like Modulator and Whelen electronic sirens. Not a huge fan of those older and outdated types of sirens that use motors and choppers/rotors to produce sounds. Electronic sirens rule!
@@abdullaharif6455 Yes, electronic sirens are great, especially the whelen series.
@@SouthGeorgiaSirens And Modulators
Modulators are just some piled-up tall Mentos towers.
Looks amazing! And the audio is soooo good. Great video!!!
0:43 RIP birds eardrums
Believe it or not, They are fine. Birds eardrums are super strong, Actually. You can play a 200,000 Hz Tone directly into their ears and they would be fine.
This is one of my all time favorite modulator recordings
Oh boy, nice recording mate, really liked it.
Modulator: Hi I am here to replace you.
EOWS 612: NOOOOOOOOOOO
EOWS 612: dead
Eows: wait nvm I'm u but earrape
@Thunderbolt honest Ely yea
A recording already, nice!
I love the sound of the wail tone on the FS Ultravoice controller.
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
I think it just wasn't programmed like the other ones on the east side of town.
Very Nice! I think this is a big upgrade from the 612s. Also, are those birds deaf? Lol
either that, or they've heard it so many times, they just stopped caring.
R.I.P 612
EOWS 612 seems fine why is this such an upgrade? what because These ones don’t have a rotator?
@@thegamingtigertoyedanbartl5639 these are louder than the EOWS, and are Omnidirectional.
@@onefastslimjim If they wanted a loud omnidirectional, they should have bought whelens.
Nice! Just on Saturday I was passing by on I-64 and I spotted a new MOD off in the distance. I believe it was the hospital one.
Yep that was probably it, it's very close to the Interstate.
LoL why does the hospital need one for zombie outbreaks?
These were by far the most steadfast birds I've ever seen on a siren.
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.
Thanks! There was an unmarked Charger parked nearby checking the siren. Hopefully they reported the issue.
@@DSRX100 was this siren painfully loud at close range? was it that loud?
Would it be more cost effective for a set of 1004's or 8032's?
Great video!
would you listen to fire and ems radio on the scanner app for test tones
Nice video!!
Awesome! I'm still sad tho. At least they weren't scrapped
Nice videos
Cool Video!
I used to work near the terminals in Houston, TX, but never once heard them go off (I guess that’s a good thing since if I did, that would mean “it’s too late to run, find cover”)
Which siren tone is which, attack/warning
The fact that the birds gave zero f#$&s for a bit surprises the hell out of me
Yep, someone goofed the programing on this one, either at the factory or the installer did
how did they goofed it ?
They also forgot to put the the second control box on
@@eclipseaus I know I’m one year late, but they didn’t program the voice on this. That’s how it goofed
I have seen these sirens everywhere, didn’t even know they were sirens until now.
ME TOO there is a modulator at a fire station 8 minutes away from my house and I didn’t know it was a siren until I liked sirens lol
What's the point of them stacked this way?
how many kilometers is heard
Those pigeons are very proud!
I like how the birds were just chilling up there and then they leave cuz of the modulator 😂
All of the EOWS 612 Sirens had been replaced with Modulators in December of 2018
That bird on top of the siren doesn’t mind the sound and just sits on top of the siren
What year were these made
Oh my god that sirens ginormous
I love how those pigeons are not even caring about the siren and stil sitting on it lol.
Any vids of the Times Square 612?

I remember seeing one of these in Texas on my way to Galveston TX. It was on the side of the road by a gas station i believe. Was the only time I ever saw a modulator. It was actually the first and only tornado siren besides a whelen WPS 2905 or 2906 in Lake Charles LA that i have seen to this day.
That's cool. Do you remember what city it was in?
@@sirenkid2177 unfortunately i cant remember. All I remember is that it was next to a gas station or some building and I was going to Galveston from Alexandria La.
@@NameUndisclosed It was probably Baytown. I know of a Modulator near a Shell gas station. They have an entire system.
@@sirenkid2177 Yes! I remeber now. It was Baytown.
Jefferson County Central Dispatch Center is the Sheriff’s office dispatches the test by talking too the Fire Department’s and other community’s in the Area about the test Mount Vernon Fire Department Tests them Every First Tuesday Of The Month At 10 AM weather permitting
One of my fav Nice
I recorded the 612 a couple years ago. It's on my old channel. Sadly my channel got deleted.
Modulators are my favorite sirens besides Whelen-WPS-2910’s
It sounds like jordan’s air raid siren and also like kuwait’s siren
Mount Vernon avenue is in Bakersfield California
Do the sirens actually make those beeping sounds and voices?
No, that is just his radio. Those tones are played over the radio network and are decoded by the siren, which activates it.
Looks brand new
Nice mod
its called modulator ll
What is that dial up tone you hear
They are called DTMF Tones, or "DTMF strings". These are used similar like car keys to arm, activate, and cancel the siren.
Must be quite if the birds didint move till the second cycle of wail.
That’s different! Did they do the PA manually before the replacement?
Yep, PA was done manually.
Yep, PA was done manually.
wail emergency... from the EAS
We Have This Alarm Here in my City, Arica, Chile 🇨🇱
Tenemos esta Alarma Aqui en mi Ciudad, Arica, Chile 🇨🇱
I’ve never seen or heard of this model but they look cool wonder how loud are they
Modulator boy 6024 I think they are really loud
Skinny Drivers.
124 dB at 100 Ft.
I’m aware I’m responding to a 3 year old comment, but they aren’t really that loud, I have one in my back yard that Tests every Friday at 12pm
Was this loud? I assume it would be loud seeing as this thing has 3,200 watts of power.
It only has one ultravoice cabinet. It needs 2. Only half the drivers are working
Cool.
0:43 why didn't the birds care?
because they didnt have the dutch version czcams.com/video/BtNWok3hclw/video.html
They don't hear the siren, because they don't has ears. 😐😐😐😐😐
@@djmario2381 *Boi* why tf would birds have calls if they couldn't hear each other lol
They're already deaf from a previous test.
They were on the top of the siren, not next to it. The siren is designed to project outward, not up.
thats the tallest modulator I have ever seen
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?
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.
DSRX100 that would make sense. Most Rural areas are weak of sirens I bet.
Yeah especially that area. That lake is a pretty large recreational area around Southern Illinois, so it'd make sense to place a few sirens there.
2 problems: the decoder is definitely f##ked, and this is an obvious west shore install because somebody once again forgot to install the second control box
50 years in the past
I wonder if a stacked pancake will be a siren
Present day
Oh this is normal
I saw one of these poking out of some trees at a baseball game
JES THATS A BIG SIREN
Did you find a 2001 SRN
Yes, they're everywhere.
voice alert warning siren system from a squall storm warning
Those birds on top instantly deaf for sure
What is the exact location of this
Veterans Memorial Park. I believe it’s at the southeast corner.
@@DSRX100 I found one at a shopping center area and the sirens new speech is ATTENTION. This is the city of mt vernon EMA. the National Weather Service Has Issued A Severe Thunderstorm Warning. Seek shelter immediately. Go inside for shelter. And also ATTENTION. This is the city of mt vernon EMA. the National Weather Service Has Issued Tornado Warning. Take Cover Immediately. This is a tornado warning.
This video was recorded ery close to one of my friends house
The pigeons sitting on it:
😟
For some reason this did wail and alert
This is the Modulator that replaced the EOWS 612 lmao
1:40 for a second during the wind up it sounded like it was in dual tone
I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed that. I'm thinking it's just a weird echo.
For once the bird didn’t fly off the siren immediately after the sirens turned on.
I got that siren in COVID 19 pandemic but it’s greenish blue lol
Nah bro, this is wail. Did this modulator replace a whelen?
It replaced a 612
lol the birds
Bellingham Washington has this siren
0:40
1:39
(Siren activates) (birds: uhhh wait a minut (Bird removes an earbuD) ITS THE TORNADO SIRENS FLY TO MEXICO
The fs modulator looks like a hockey putt
I just stumbled upon this but I'm not trying to be mean but what's the point of the video
its *sorta* interesting, dont you think?
Eh kinda but it still doesn't answer my question
@@fordthefox9870 for me personally i just get bored and watch sirens go off
@@fordthefox9870 there's no real answer to why it exists. Us siren enthusiasts just enjoy the sound of these sirens.
It sounds like a 2001 when on steady tone.
It’s much higher pitched
That siren scars the bird
B I G B O I
At half power!
alert emergency... all clear system
I'm not scared of that creepy sound it's a Chicago siren because it sounds like a Chicago siren
Hahahah some gud bird
1700 Hz.
Chicago siren!!!

Come on MV, not only did you screw up on your programming, but you’re still using the same radio tones as before. It seems like they threw the system together in 5 minutes and called it macaroni.
There's also this very long delay between the DTMF tones and it activating. I had to edit it down a bit too.
The new UV's are only available as two-way, dtmf is a two-way activation method, why spend hundreds of dollars for purchase of a new set of dtmf when what exists works just fine?
@@DSRX100 It sure seems like whoever installed these screwed up on the programming.
@@niks_crazy_world That's for sure. I'd say after they get a few bugs worked out, they'll have a very nice system of Mods.
DSRX100 *If* they ever get the bugs worked out. Did these have West Shore stickers on the control boxes?
I want one.
The Weirdest Stuff same. They are HUGE
