Still struggling.  Currently getting an ‘Unable to Transmit’ error from dummyrepeater. 

I went back and looked at ambeserver.  As you can see below, I start ambeserver and immediately check the status.  It appears to start properly.  Then I check the status again less than a minute later and see a ‘failed’ message.  I don’t know if this is what’s causing dummyrepeater to throw the error code, but I don’t think this is right.
