		The English Post Horn was originally designed by Hope-Jones as a 16' Reed in his reconstructed Swell division which, with its weighty flue-work (Diapason Phonon and Tibia Clausa), required something really startling in its Reed chorus by way of contrast.
		This function was admirably fulfilled by his Double English Horn (to give it its original name), which at the time it was introduced, represent the extreme limit of brassy, strident Reed tone, the quality of which is most aptly described by Wedgwood as a “thin blare”.
		Strony calls the English Post Horn “the king of theatre organ chorus reeds”, and reports that it typically appears at 8' pitch, and at 16' in the manuals to tenor C, but is sometimes extended down to 16' for use in the pedal.

	J. Stephen Horn Post Office Building
		This post office that we are naming after him he fought long and hard to get a ZIP Code for in Signal Hill, so I think it is very, very fitting that we offer him this tribute by putting his name on that post office.
		The length that Steve Horn went to secure a separate ZIP Code for Signal Hill is indicative of the passion and persistence he brought to his job as a Member of Congress.
		Steve Horn was not an athlete, he was not a recordholder, but he was in every sense a champion, a champion of good government and government efficiency and a champion for the American people.

	diyAudio Forums - front load W horn???
		The top end will be seriously attenuated by the 180 degree folds in the horn and 400-500Hz will likely be the upper limit in any decently designed W, with any driver.
		Horn design is not a simple cut-and-paste like most domestic ported boxes are, for example.
		I haven't run the numbers in a sim as I don't have the software here, but with that box height it would be a tight fit based on the driver size.

	diyAudio Forums - folded horns
		My small horn had a rather "cold" sound and no deep bass but the bass which came out was like a horse kick in the stomach.
		Horns are the best, providing you build them right as the level of compromises you can get away with in a box design will show up to a scary level in a poorly implemented horn.
		Good horns, esp for bass are large, and anyone who says they can get bass out of a small horn is full of it.

		He was also provided with a blunderbuss, a clock kept in a leather pouch, a horse pistol, and a horn with which to warn other road users as well as to announce the arrival and departure of the coach.

		The mail coaches traveled the toll roads free of charge so the post horn call was sounded to alert tollgate keepers to immediately open the gate under the pain of a 40 shilling fine should they fail.

	VWvortex Forums: bought a new horn.
		I think this horn would be a great replacement for the dinky alarm horn that you can't hear from farther than 10 feet away.
		I installed the horn today in my 98 civic, used it quite often but after holding it for a while, the fuse burned out, it's a 15A fuse and I'm wondering if it's safe to upgrade it to a 20A since the horn is bigger.
		The notes of the horns (probably at least five or six) were tuned to a major chord, and it was crazy, ridiculous, insane loud.

		A first one was made from the old 1893-1919 flag by cutting out the post horn and sewing it onto a fl-red-gold flag.
		On the other hand there was at least a project for a new postal flag consisting of a white post horn on a fl-red-gold flag.
		Obviously this was already designed in September 1919, but was not officially introduced, as in April 1921 there was a new regulation on flags, including the postal flag.

		In "real cars" (pre computer days), the horn was simply activated by grounding the end of the horn circuit with the horn switch.
		No more...in the LX pressing the switch sends data to the computer which then sends a command to horn module to blow the horn.
		With the ignition switch in the OFF position the module does not get/act on the horn switch input.

		The Stebel Nautilus horns are louder than regular electric car horns, but they cannot achieve anywhere near 139dB @ 1m.
		These compact horns are also very high pitched (>700Hz) just like the spray-can air horns for sports fans.
