Headed down to this booper for the first Tuesday test today, as I was wanting to record this thing ever since the summer of last year and I finally got around to doing it. For some reason, I suspected that Arlington Heights is either not on NWCD, or they are but not on their main frequency which is on radio reference. Eventually, me and Oliver (FireAlarmExpert25) confirmed they are indeed on NWCD. But, because they always do 3 minutes, I suspected they have Fulton radios in their controls (as they have the same antennas as the sirens in Buffalo Grove, and every other town that is on the Fulton system) and ignore cancel tones every time. Today I proved myself wrong as the FSK did NOT set off AH's sirens, and this Whelen went off with the 4th set of DTMF tones on NWCD's radio reference frequency, but just ignored all the cancellation tones. It was very loud, and rattled the ground! Wasn't as punchy as I was imagining it to be though, but still super impressive for an omnidirctonal Whelen! It was also my second time hearing a 435Hz Whelen up close. Hope you all enjoy!
