- As for the phasar, have you ever actually listened to the phaser mode of
- an emergency vehicle while approaching? SOmetime listen to one as it is
- approaching, have the driver switch from wail to welp, to phaser, my
- ears may not be perfect, but I can detect a noticable decrease in sound
- when the phasar is activated!!!!! Also, with the newer cars, it don't
- matter what kind of siren you run, with the windows up a 747 could land
- on the roof and they would never heard anything!!!
