Train horn connected to a motion sensor? ok maybe not....
I see a bunch of people with those fake owls which are supposed to scare other birds away.

I see a bunch of those too, often with gull crap dripping down the sides of their plastic wings.

No silly. 20ga ⅞ ounce #6 shot. Depending on wind improved modified or full choke. Some folks might go with a 12 ga duck load, but I wouldn’t want that big a pattern and risk canvas damage.

Nope. We have twin Kalhanbergs and using them only makes the wife mad.
Can you string a piece of twine across the area where they land? About 6" above the area. The twine will keep them from landing - guaranteed. I did that to the overhead structure at the end of our dock about 15 years ago... they haven't been back since. Although they do now land on a neighbors dock.
Another option is to glue some spikes to the top of the radome. Same thing - they won't be able to land.

Back in the day when the mailman brought AOL CDs nearly every day. CDs hung on monofilament seemed to work really well. There is a fellow with a 280 on a mooring just down stream from us who has what looks like netting that he covers the entire topside with. How he gets it over the arch is beyond me.
We’ve never had much of a problem with them resting on the 280, or the new boat, ducks on the finger dock and swim platform are worse.
