  Great thank you ... there is indeed more there. What I think would be
nice, when it does a scan it sees multiple AP's on same ssid - it would
be nice if there was a click and then for that SSID it showed all AP's
by MAC in the scan - typing in the BSSID requires me to scan (or know)
and copy the scan by hand.
