Looks like a great little kit, and your English is a whole lot better than my Polish. Thanks for the post.

>>no whistle - it's bulky and I still can't see why everybody want to carry it - maybe I change my mind ... or learn to whistle on fingers?

If you have to signal for help, blowing a whistle is much easier than yelling or screaming. And whistling on your fingers may not be possible - for example, if you're wearing gloves or mittens because it's too cold to take them off.

Whistles can be bulky but there are some that are quite small - I carry one on my keychain that's not much bigger than my car ignition key. But of course, you may be restricted to what you can buy locally, so just keep an eye open for what you might find.

You're right. I don't deny that whistling is far better than screaming, just see it's limitations in comparision with mirror/race/light/fire/smoke [short range, useless when rescuers are in vehicles,sometimes hard to determine direction,...]. Can be useful for communication between two groups/people as substitute of short range radios when they have any system of sygnalization.

whistle that is cheap, small, light, and fairly loud (Nothing compared to a storm or even the fox 40 but...) It is also internationally available online.
