It is unlikely. The Class B controller was undoubtedly watching you
on radar, but all he saw was an anonymous VFR target squawking 1200 (I
assume you had your xponder on). At some point, he saw your altitude
readout zoom down to 2500, mumbled to himself, "That idiot finally
figured out where he was", and got on with his life.

To figure out who you were, he would have had to track you all the way
to your destination and then have somebody there get your N-number.
Unless you did something really exciting, it's highly unlikely he
would have bothered.


Unfortunately, my GTX330 reports my N number (why did they do that?).
Maybe I should remove the N number from the report (lock the barn after
the
horse.....). No planes were showing on the traffic display so there was
no
loss of seperation caused. I was probably in B for a couple of miles at a
slant so I was probably a mile or less closer to the airport.


Who does your GTX330 report your N number to?
