Barney,
Sorry to jump in, I use whistle along with droppers. Over the years I have
seen many lost birds comeback only on whistle. In 2008 the day I flew
15:33hrs (DQ'd wrong band year entered) one of my YB was lost 2 days before
was passing over the loft as my timer & I were watching the kit In he air. I
just whistled, YB bird made quick U-turn and hit neighbour's roof. Without
any droppers YB came to the loft and trapped.

Many more incidents proven just on whistle. Whistle is part of my imprinting
process.
