I took the plug today and modified my BCT15 with a Discriminator tap. I had the guys in my electrical shop make up an external connector and run a wire through the existing hole in the back of the scanner. I used the RS 274-333, External 1/8" Mono Inline Audio Jack for my external connection and a shielded 2 wire for the main feed. They used black zip-ties on the front and back of the wire so it wouldn’t pull through the hole. The wire was almost too thick so pull-through is not a concern. They connected the ground using an insulated ring connector which is attached to a case screw. They did a quick solder to the DISC point so it can be easily removed if need with no damage or notice to the unit. The resister was connected to the main connection and covered in heat shrink. Now I feel better about how the mod turned and there was no damage to the unit in the process.
I'm checking out some of the programs now and they all seem to be working great. I figured I pass this on for those who didn't want to drill holes in there new scanners.
