Someone asked in a previous thread if the new Athearn diesels would have the same Tsunami sound features as a Tsunami you buy and install yourself. I just saw this in a different forum. I do not use diesels so I cannot comment.

I just checked my new Athearn SF F7 Warbonnet horns (CV115) - it only has 3
horns not 16. For CV115 values set to 3 and above it appears to fault to a
Wabco sound which is CV115 value=0. Also I can’t seem to activate the “Quiet
Mode” CV113. It would be nice if Athearn would identify specific differences,

I know the Bachmann Tsunami steam have the same issue.
Really not a big issue as the Tsunami is still a good decoder. The real problem is modelers assuming both have the same features. I would have thought the same at one time.
All the PDF’s are on the 'Net and you can see the difference but it takes some reading to see this difference.
