For example, when I had Reeves check one of my horns, they supplied me with 6 measurements showing how far out of alignment each valve was in both the up and down position. The last horn that I had done checked out nearly perfect on all 3 valves in the down position, but was way off in the up position. Interpretting that - the horn played like it was supposed to with all 3 valves down, but was not even close to spec in the open position. I had the alignment done, the horn is now much more even blowing on all combinations.
