I use the short high Eb fingering - oxx G#| oxo C - or oxx G#| oox C depending which is more in tune (the top fingerplate is held almost closed with the adjusting screw).

And for high E - 8ve1 oxx G#| oxx Eb.

This is why French and American players don't have or recommend the B-C link as it interferes with the full fingerings in the altissimo register where the low B key is used.

But Howarth oboes made for the US market that have a B-C link fitted have plenty of adjustment there, so it can be completely disengaged by backing off the adjusting screw.

Former oboe finisher
Howarth of London
1998 - 2010

The opinions I express are my own.
