- 1966 The whistle punk is being replaced by the talkie-tooter, an electronic device worn on the belt of the chokerman. When a log is ready to be yarded in, after the choker is set, the chokerman just presses the talkie tooter. It sends an electronic signal to the receiving set on the donkey and sounds a whistle.
