I bought this horn from a board member, and to my surprise it was doing just like you are talking about. After talking with Sitko, it seems they only made this horn for about 6 months. The bell hanger is built in the horn causing it to raise the carriage. I had to get a special crane for this one. Yours isn't like this one is it?

Your horn is an early style cygnet that was sold with a forward aiming reproducer/carriage (see pics below). With this horn, you need a specific steel connector which slides up and down on the interior of the horn as the carriage moves. With this setup, you have no lifting of carriage.
