last year fireworks this year sirens?
put up some of those gunshot detector thingies and vector in on it
I lived in Takoma Park during that time - I remember that.
Easily tracked to the source with triangulation technology. A few tweaks to the code on these systems would do it.
Interesting theory. Why only at night?
The Rockville siren was one of those huge sirens power by a Dodge Red Ram hemi. It was mounted on a tower adjacent to the Rockville Volunteer Fire Department. Your could hear it as far away as Gaithersburg.
Suitland, MD is where the US Census Bureau is headquartered along with some other nondescript government buildings circled by razor wire-topped fences and manned by armed security.
I was very familiar with the area about a year ago, and driving down parts of the main drag made me think I was in a third world country. The blacks with whom I worked would regularly warn me not to be on the streets after dark, and the DC metro green line station on the Census Bureau property made me feel very uncomfortable.
This doesn’t surprise me all that much.
I read somewhere else that it happens during the day, too.
Exactly... Sound is a directional wave like RF that can be “triangulated”. With a thermos full of coffee, an empty paper towel roll to the ear (directional antenna), a map, and one night shift it would be easy to track down and prove the source. Is everyone waiting for someone else to do it? Or they just don’t know how? They need to put a HAM radio operator on the job, the HAM police are scary GOOD at triangulating TX sources.
The OP seems to be focused on the night - probably because it is the most sensational.
During the day it probably just blends in with the rest of the noise.
