Summary of this article: Has Whistler returned to business? NatCom has been following the story for the past few months and we now have news that will be of interest to Whistler scanner owners as well as those who want to acquire Whistler scanners. As we reported in December, the business gradually shut down operations in Arkansas over a period of several months. We now have an update for those who want to know what is new with Whistler scanners.
