Love2ref4Ever:

The item you you are describing is call the Flip Switch. The only place I ever saw them advertised was in Referee Magazine, and I have not seen them advertised in Referee for at least a couple of years. But I did buy two of them the first time I saw them advertised. They are compatible only with the full size Fox 40’s (sometimes called the Classic Fox 40).

I put them in two of my whistles and only use them for rec. league games, team camps, and such, where there are no AP Arrows. The Flip Switch does alter the sound slighty of the whistle.

I know that some officials move an extra whistle back and forth between pockets. Do not get into that habit. Work on remembering which way the AP Arrow is supposed to be.
