Re: foghorn

Call the Mayor of Duluth, MN. I think they retired the foghorn that used to operate at the Port of Duluth. It might be for sale and would probably look something like the one in the picture Drowned Rat posted.

Re: foghorn

yea, thanks alot studly mandingo. ive seen those before, but couldnt find any audio on what they sounded like. unless you can find audio for a fog horn like that, then im lost. if that sounded alot like a ship's foghorn, then itll work perfectly. unfortunately, i havent been able to find audio, or one that sounds like it.

My ex wife actually and she is probably loud enough to warn everyone in a 50 mile radius that she is there !!
If she doesn't work out as a foghorn then you could always leave her out there !!

Re: foghorn

Any horn can be used as a fog horn you just need to make the proper pattern for your boat. If you are looking for a automatic fog horn probably the best bet is to get a top of the line VHF radio that has a fog horn feature. Must also get the hailer and your all set.

Re: foghorn

the foghorns you get these days are just a normal house alarm speaker that does the tune thing, not like a train hooter that works with air .....
