Not trying to hijack your thread Pat B, but trying to learn about sirens as well.

I read the following from OldTurtle:

If no response, I'll move a couple of miles down the road and repeat... If I get a response, I'll log it on my GPS for daytime (we can't hunt with lights at night in MO)..
Which answers my personal question on how long to do it and if you can use a vehicle while using a siren.
So the question that I have regarding the use of a siren: it seems that a siren is a great way to locate a coyote, (maybe better than other locator calls?) but I am a bit confused about the following steps. It seems that guys are saying that they use a siren, and then if they get a response they will make a note of where it was and return later (the following day perhaps). But can you use a siren, and once it is determined that there are indeed dogs in the area, can you begin using another call to bring them in? Or is this more so a method to be used for scouting with a planned return?
