On a TR3 horn there's am adjuster screw. The procedure (wear ear plugs
for this!) is to connect up the horn with an ammeter in line and adjust
the screw until the meter reads 6 amps.
I found it interesting that that would make the current draw for both
horns on the TR3 12 amps, quite a bit for a gereator system capably of
about 30 amps.
