They are all logging to a server via NCAT, so I have those logs.  I'll
add the "-d /etc/log" as well.

I was previously using version 0.6.3.1 (with a fix noted in 2/23/21
post) and 'Back1' seemed to stay online for several days vs. half a day.
However, this is just based on my memory.

I set "WSERVER="slow"" in the script.   The details I posed here are
grabbing the RawFails from each Radio web server.

Floater is about 15 inches from the AP, so it should not be going out of
range of the AP....

'Floater' is about 15 inches from the AP and should have great signal.  
'Back1' and 'Back2' are in a poor signal area (but up until the last
year with the all these drops, had no issues).  'Kitchen' has a good
signal.

I've moved 'Back1' temporarily nearby to 'Floater'.  Based on earlier
tests, 'Back1' should stay online longer now.  I can also move 'Back1'
to its original location for more testing.

I updated Radios to the Community build firmware a few weeks ago \, and
it made no difference in reducing the issue.
