ID Tracker II Alpha Release Available

[brscanning]

An alpha release of ID Tracker II is now available. This release currently
supports the BCD996T scanner only. Although the program should work (at
least for the most part), this is still a work in progress so use it at your
own risk. The documentation has not been updated at this time. Please read
notes before downloading.

Ohh yaa, You rock I didn't think we were getting one for the 996. I'm gonna give it a try right now!

I have been thinking about a discriminator tap / slicer for quite some time so that I could identify new stuff - this doesnt seem to go that route. So how does the program help identify new trunk IDs?

Well, Everytime I download this It gives me the current V.3.10.1, and not the new Alpha 0.1.0. I am clicking the link under the "ID Tracker II (Alpha Release)" Heading and it still gives me the original. Am I missing something? Thanks!

By placing the scanner in search mode, you can then captive the IDs and audio of unknown IDs. Then by going back and listening, you can then hopefully get enough information to identify the parties using that particular ID. Sometimes, people will identify the ID they are on and other times on a known ID they will say they are moving to a new channel (switched to TAC). You will then here them on an unidentified ID thus identifying the ID. Other times you must simply deduce the IDs from the conversations.

It's like play detective listening to the small details to discover new IDs.

BTW, for those using the alpha release, I would appreciate any feedback on functionality and any problems found.
