Do you mean this horn?

If the poster's information is correct and it is 148,5 inches long that would put this horn in F. But, this horn might not(is probably not actually) be at a=440...
I have the strong suspicion that this horn might actually be a slightly sharp Eb....
Also, this is a TINY horn...not much bigger than a euphonium...
...Sorry I wasn't much help...
