What Bell is on the horn?

I am not sure. I have seen others talk about the bell. Do I measure the diameter?

If the bell size is not marked on the face of the bell itself, it will be stamped with a small number on the ferule exiting the valve block.

Benge bell sizes are generally 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7.
