# Brandmeister Last Heard Monitor

Brandmeister Last Heard Monitor/Notifier

This Python script will listen to the Brandmeister Last Heard API endpoint for any callsign or Talkgroup (or both) that you configure and it will send you a notification when there is activity for those callsigns and/or talkgroups.

## Origins

##### Created by [mclemens/pyBMNotify](https://codeberg.org/mclemens/pyBMNotify) then forked/refactored by [n8acl/bm_monitor](https://github.com/n8acl/bm_monitor) and finally you are here: [mauvehed/bm_monitor](https://github.com/mauvehed/bm_monitor).

> This script is really just a refactoring using a newer socketIO python library from what the original pyBMNotify script was using. Brandmesiter updated the protocol that their API was using a few months ago and the old script did not support the newer protocol, so I just refactored the script for this newer protocol.

>

> The actual logic and guts of the script are still the same as the original pyBMNotify script that [Michael Clemens, DK1MI](https://qrz.is/) wrote and that is all HIS work. That is why this is a fork, not an original work. I wanted to make sure that was clear. I did not do the heavy lifting for this project, I just refactored the connection. Everything else is his work.
