Keith,

My best guess...

The signal is encrypted. From what I understand... No two signals are encrypted the same. So if you are able to find the packeted(?is that a word) digital signal, you'll have to break a variable code that is encrypted differently for each transmission.

The fingerprint that is sent in the encrypted signal is never the same. It is coded differently because each time you press your print to the sensor, the software's algorithm reads/codes different points when comparing to the template. Sooo, the fingerprint code, which is encrypted, is never transmitted in the same format from one transmission to another.

If that has confused anyone please forgive me, I'm a surfer, not a writer...;)
