The Old Programmable Diesel Horn General discussion

Years ago, I purchased and built the PDH-1, the Programmable Diesel Horn sold by Kieth Gutierrez(sp?).  I've used it off an on for years and it still works.  I want to program a new horn but I've either lost or misplaced the manual. I need to know the musical notes produced by each of the five toggle switches in both the up and down positions.  I'm sure this information was included in the manual.

Does anyone still have the manual for this old project and could tell me this information?  It will be much appreciated.  By the way, I've looked on Keith's CVP Products website and the manual is not available there.

Contact CVP?

Have you tried contacting CVP about this?  My bet would be that if Keith has access to the old materials he would provide the necessary info to you.  I haven't dealt with CVP's customer service in some time, but back when I had their RailCommand system they were always willing to help.

May be in the archives

Doug,

As I recall, I got the docs. to do a Nathan 5 chime, that sounded an A Major 6th chord, so:  A, C#, E, F#, A.

When I get home tonight, I'll see if I can find the info in my "ancient archives" on the shelf in the garage.
