Yup! Those Motorola radios are apparently the reason they had to upgrade from their original ESC-864 Digital logic boards in the late 2000s-early 2010s.
Its an OptiWarn/ITS System, its going away soon though. Also, its not an FSK system, its a APCO 25 IP Over Radio system, meaning if you even have the encryption key you still wouldn't hear anything.

@@almaburmydylan1713 we're not sure if they're gonna repair or replace. The E-Mail the EMA sent me said they were "looking at our best options with our vendor".
@@almaburmydylan1713 small update: they've said they're either going to replace the head and keep everything else, move the siren site to the west, or just remove siren site #1 all together.
"Everyone in McKinney is dead. It's hot in McKinney!"
R. I. P. Goofy Whelen.
The tone it's using is called "Best Possible Protection".
That custom radio tho! (Which I think is a Motorola FSK radio)

@@personperson2319 So they are indeed Motorola radios huh. Well then, I finally know what their tones would sound like as I have heard Motorola FSK

Motorola doesn't do FSK. It would be the siren controller that does the FSK
@@CHS1997 they do, its just a rare option to see
Nice video. I knew it didn't rotate. It should replaced it soon with a 2910.
I contacted the EMA office and told them about it. They haven't responded yet.
@@personperson2319 Ok let me know about this.
@@personperson2319 how do you contact the Ema office?

@@personperson2319 Ok.
Where is this? Also nice video recording!
This is unit #1 at the intersection of Smith and Johnson streets.
What even happened for the rotator to break?
Oh no Whelen broke his wires!!!
Lol
Denmark utilizes the same tone as here.
Accept its a little fast and not the same tone
Actually this is the same sound they use in Israel for the Iron Dome warning.
I went to it today and the rotators still broken
@@almaburmydylan1713 I wouldn't be surprised if they throw up a 2910 soon.
it got da encryption on it :skull:
What do you mean? The Motorola radio?
@@SirensAndAlarmsOfNorthernIL Apparently, McKinney's siren system is encrypted. The top panel contains the encryption board.
