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

Wow this brings back memories. Growing up, if this tone was heard it meant “take cover, nuclear attack imminent”. Since I lived in a “target city” my parents had a cement fallout shelter room in the corner of the basement stocked with food and supplies. Thankfully it never saw use from an actual attack (but it made a great secret clubhouse).

If you lived in a target city or 5 miles within one, you would be told to evacuate

I grew up in Nashua Iowa, hearing this siren brings back a lot of memories considering I lived across the street from the police department where this was filmed
Nice video! It’s like Big Island but better lol. Love how you can still see the CD stickers on the sides.
the apple: *falls on me* me:
Awesome Video! Was fun meeting you!
Round and round and round it goes. Where it stops nobody knows.
Nice video Mike!
Looks like it could be from the mid to late 80s because you can still see the stickers pretty well.

Nice video, hopefully unless the weather is bad and if I won't make it down there I'm about to get a thunderbolt 1003 in Nocona Texas on Wednesday at noon.
That rotator is fast
I am cheerfully delighted and flabbergasted with enormous gratification and appreciation for dispensing such an awesome post. In other words; Wow cool post, thanks for sharing. ❤👻
Nice Video!
This is the best tornado siren 🚨
Also I find it funny how the dying 2001 is louder

It’s probably just a blown fuse and/or a faulty bushing. I let the city know about both problems, they’ll be getting them fixed soon.
HOLY THAT ROTATOR 👌👌👌👌👌👌
That was charlie Davidsons bolt before he moved they took it put it there and changed rotating speed to 8rpm and removed the red light and spinny thing
Very fresh looking bolt
Nice Video
Nice video.
Amazing.
it goes F A S T
Nice!
The city should switch that other 2001-130 to AC so that the batteries can be fully charged incase of power loss and the one with low batteries sounds a little like a ASC T-128 and since there are already two 2001-130s will this get eventually get replaced

The 2001-130s got installed for battery backup coverage throughout the city, but the Thunderbolt was never removed. So the short answer is yes, but it may be awhile.

Sounds more like a Vortex running an ESC-2020 set to 435hz.
INCOMING!!!!!!
Something seems to be on low battery
Why are the other sirens doing alert while this one is doing attack?
Do not remove goggles or face blast after first light
Wow it got a headstart
Dam that thing is fast
I used to go to school there.
