Thanks! That's likely the problem and I figured it was something like that
since the other values work fine.
Regarding versions....everything I have installed was done on December
26th, 2018 so it's all relatively current if not fully current versions.
I made the changes to sdr.py and will wait for some rain now.
Yes...whack-a-mole... ;-)
