still used to this day? i hear it every first Thursday of the month!

Its in the village of Onset in the town of Wareham, Mass. which is upper cape so yeah

There's nothing like a Diaphone

@@erikanderson1915 Thats true

I will take the diaphone over any siren, very distinct device and for those of us who still use municipal Fire Alarm, much easier to sound the box number than with a siren.

Yes lets go balls to the wall for a false alarm

Yea that was kinda pathetic.

Is it a full time fire station, or volunteer?

@@andymacmac9151 volunteer

It's a nice day. Why not park rigs on ramp? If the 2nd piece waits long enough it won't have to go.

That up top is a warning siren.

@@Gvacs I'm not talking about the siren I'm talking about the *horns.*

There are 2 horns. 1 is a Leslie Typhon, the other is a Diaphone. I used to help maintain their 100 mil system. The horns are on the new Station set to go back in service.

@@zacharylynch2469 That is interesting. Yeah, I saw a facebook post from Onset FD stating that they are bringing the horns back after years of them being out of service. It is really cool to hear that as the town I grew up in had gamewell fire horns that are now deactive sadly. I heard those horns all the time for like every call. sad to see that others wont get the same experience I did with them in that town lol

Michael Zupet It’s an old CD siren

Erik Anderson it’s inactive

@@nmfd72 It used to be a Civill Defense Siren
