Thanks to all who responded. PUFIs fool me every time, if it's not their bubbling song. (And to make it worse, I had one in my back yard mimicking something one time.)

Debbie and all,
This sounds to me like the calls, rather than the
song, of a Purple Finch. I remember being confused by
this call because of it's somewhat vireo-like pattern.
The flight call of a Purple Finch is more often
described at a "pit" rather than a "whit" but I assume
that is what is being referred to here.
Hope this helps,
