Glad to help, Jack.

Not to state the obvious, but just in case anyone on the list is just
getting started, be sure to keep an eye on:

http://www.ariss.net/

... to be aware of how long it's been since ANYONE has been digipeated &
picked up by an iGate.  I had a direct overhead pass today but heard
nothing.  It was very helpful to have ariss.net to let me know that it
wasn't a problem on my end (THIS time!), but instead that apparently the
digipeater is not currently turned on.
