Type: Whelen WPS-4000-4
Signal: Alert (x2)
Location: 620 Gender Road, Canal Winchester, Franklin County, OH

Mike and I headed out to the Columbus area for a Wednesday test back in December. We were stuck deciding between several sirens including a Fairfield County 3000 but ultimately decided on recording this analog 4004. This thing was very punchy, and the various ambient Whelens sound incredible. The snow made this test extra enjoyable. Enjoy!

Franklin County sirens are tested every Wednesday at noon, and perform a full test every first Wednesday at noon.

Originally recorded 12/16/20.
