Hi Brennan,

Looking through the code, I am guessing you hacked up

net/bluetooth/hci_request.c::active_scan to set enable_cp.filter_dup = 0?

How did that turn out?  Was there a lot of volume?

I am running 'hcitool lescan --duplicates' with a couple of cc2650 tags I
have (one custom fw) and see about 20-25 adv/second.  That doesn't seem so
bad.

What type of numbers did you see?

Cheers,
Don
