Hi, John:

  Likely.

 From the '/status' screen, do a 'WiFi Scan' and note the SSID of MAC: 
68:72:51:2F:7F:5B.
That will be the SSID of KAS.
If your click on the title 'MAC/BSSID' the results will be sorted by MAC.
This may assist you in finding the SSID in use by KAS.

I do not have any nodes on channel '-2' 2397 MHz,
So all these SSIDs for different VLANs are not in my records or memory.

  I suspect that you may see many AREDN nodes from your location

  Oh, by the way, I moved my 'mesh' images to
http://gelm.net/images/2018/index.php
So folks without mesh access may view them.

Chuck
