Thank you, Max, for sharing your expertise... So, you are saying, the 
decision on whether to notify the host of a particular bit of traffic 
the dongle "hears" is controlled by the hard-coded logic on the dongle 
itself -- and can not be reprogrammed by the host?

Sad... Maybe, I will have to "broadcast" something in order to register 
responses.
