Whistler History

The Whistler Group was an electronics company based in Bentonville, Arkansas, USA.

 Founded in 1971, the company gained recognition for its innovative radar detectors, power inverters, GPS navigation devices, scanner radios, and other mobile electronics.

 Over the years, The Whistler Group expanded its product line to include inspection cameras, LED flashlights, vehicle dashboard cameras, fire suppressants and more.


In late 2013, The Whistler Group acquired the scanner radio technical assets from GRE, allowing them to manufacture scanner radios similar to those produced by GRE. The company continued to innovate and provide high-quality electronics.


The Whistler Group’s legacy lives on through Goliad Products, LLC. Goliad Products acquired the assets of The Whistler Group in January 2025.
