ON: Lt. Jg Tracy kept her eyes glued to her sensor readings. Gwen had said "find that ship" and Josie had every intention of doing so. So when the sensors showed the energy signiture of a federation ship powering up she instantly had Max try to identify the signiture. Sure enough it was that of a Defiant class ship. Josie's fingers ran across the keypad as she hurriedly input a program. She Checkov got in scanning range and scanned the Orion ship. Josie sent her little program out with the false readings that masked the crew from being detected for who they really were. "Sir" Josie said to get the attention of the Admerial that was sitting in Gwen's chair. "I have found the Checkov. She is now heading out of the system. I have sent the coords to Helm. I have also "tagged" the ship so we might be able to track it." It was a simple program really. When Federation ships use their sensors it is set to automaticaly filter out "background noise." Josie's program simply makes it so that the program on the Checkov that does the filtering also leaves a signiture in its wake in the background noise. Noone would even know its there unless they were looking for the signs. And the simple program was undetectable as it really didn't change anything except for a minor way that the filter worked.
