I can go to a pedal Bb, which is pretty low.
Technically speaking you could go to the pedal f#, that being the fundamental note of the longest tubing length on a standard double horn (1,2,3 on the f side), but most professional players don't play much lower than pedal c (2 cs below middle c) the lowest not I have had to play in orchestra is a pedal e (2 es below middle c) in Schostakovich's 5th symphony.
