The example I gave: may have been slightly extreme  -  Bb minor (concert
pitch).  Both horn players had 12 bars rest, first entrance was a fortissimo
written C,  Db, both missed the Db.

All the other times I've used horn key signatures I had no problems.

I suppose I overreacted when I swore off of them for good.
