The STH-10 will always send a shiver down my spine. It's a beautiful thing, but it's also spooky.

[@roxfire23]

Does the sth-10 sit on top of the Cooperstown firehouse or elsewhere ?

[@WoodJack99]

It’s on a pole behind the station.

[@nssteampunk4865]

Does it also go off for tornado warnings?

[@roxfire23]

No only for fire calls we don’t have tornadoes in NY

Was this a test?

[@KatTheFoxtaur]

I'm actually not sure, since I'm not from that area (I was there for my niece's wedding).
This was recorded at 4:14pm on Friday, May 26, 2017, if anyone from this area happens to see this comment and can inform me whether they test this regularly or not!

@@KatTheFoxtaur Cooperstown usually sounds at noon everyday except sundays (as of when i moved from cooperstown in 2005) as a noon whistle and they also do sound for firecalls. Cooperstown has a Model 5 aswell at the intersection of Chestnut and Beaver ST. Sorry for the delay
