    So recently, and by recent I mean sometime in 2020, Maceo's famous 10V2T got replaced. Daviess County has been replacing a lot of their older mechanicals through the past few years. It's been awhile since I last scoped the place out. But I'm certain all the mechanical sirens are long gone. New sirens have probably popped up as well. It's a uniform Whelen system now, a well maintained one too. But I do miss their mechanical sirens in the outlying towns. Yelvington's "rotating" Model 5 and Maceo's 10V2T were very memorable. I wish I could've heard their other 10V2Ts but they were in more inaccessible areas or just generally hard to record well.
    But the real big kicker is that Maceo's 10V2T was still working when this Vortex was first installed. For a short time, both sounded together for the weekly test. I even had that summer off, and I could've totally recorded it, but I didn't even realize this Vortex was even there to begin with. Luckily, someone else was able to record it so I linked the video below. It seems like the 10V2T was removed sometime between September and November 2020.
    Enjoy, and as always comment, like, and subscribe for more. Thanks!

    I absolutely love this new editing style and the way you’ve enhanced it! This video is amazing, and this siren looks fresh out of the factory! Amazing video overall!!

    This is the cleanest Whelen I have ever seen, and this is one of the best videos I have ever seen. I'd like to say something else besides this and not be generic but it's just too hard not to point out how good your videos are. Awesome job!!

    Can't remember if I mentioned that all the Thunderbolt 1000Ts have been replaced with 2001s in my hometown. Grand Forks, ND. A tragedy. What a waste.

    These new thumbnails look too simple but fancy, great video either way.

    The sweet sound I heard in my area during the 2021 tornado drill hopefully I will get to hear it this year aka 2023 tornado drill

    How many 10Vs did this county have before the Whelen invasion? I’m also curious as to whether the WS-1000 setups in this county survived the upgrades or not.

    • @DSRX100
      @DSRX100  Před rokem +1

      I think there were four. There was a 10V in Stanley, and 10V2Ts in Maceo, Philpot, and a junkyard off highway 81. All the Model 5s are likely gone too. The WS-1000s might still be up though. When the new Vortexes were installed, I didn't see any at one of the WS-1000 locations. Of course, that could've changed by now.

      Yeah when I recorded this thing, it was probably up for just a few months.

    How do you tell the difference between a vortex and a 4004

    Literally the same siren and tone used in South Mississippi. Pretty punchy for an electronic siren.

    I Originally thought the drone's shadow on the siren at 0:32 was a bird
