    It is also my experience, based on those that have air horns on our
    dock, that you can't put those little compressors just anywhere. They need
    to be as close as possible to the horn or the performance suffers. The guy
    right behind us has a really nice set but because he located his compressor
    a considerable distance from the horns, they sound like a dying calf in a
    hail storm for the first few seconds after the button is pushed
    Mark--

    The compressor and tank can be located at a distance from the horns with no
    ill effects. The electrically-operated solenoid valve that allows air to pass
    to the trumpets needs to be mounted very close or you will get the effect that
    is talked about.

    Best--Michael
