I have a Cobra 2500 modified sine wave inverter and a portable 8000 BTU 120V A/C (draws about 8 amps running & about double at start up) so hooked them up and the A/C would run sometime but the inverter alarm never shut up.

Get ya some real horns - like air compressor horns. The electrics still work on mine so I can blast all 6 at once with two buttons held down. Gets attention when I need it. The air horns only slow down when the temp hits freezing. Yes I use the hailer too off the VHF. My hailer cannot "hear"...
