At night, I think most VHF's are off (mine normally is). The horn does seem like it would get attention. If I heard one in the middle of the night, the first thing I would do is look around and then turn on the VHF.
Any guidance or experience would be appreciated.

I would think first you want to wake them so horn, then VHF and scream....whistle too if you have one handy. Enough noise and you'll get attention.
