   The problem first started on the older version of TB that I was   
   using on my XP laptop.  Now I see ngs dropping on my my Win7 system   
   that has a much newer TB version.   
      
   Since it's happening to both TB's, and the common denominator is the   
   server, then the problem seems to be the server.

   I have tried the Repair function on the ngs that had disappeared   
   after I resubscribed. But it seemed to make no difference - the odd   
   ng would drop off the local list again.   
      
   I have recently done a Refresh of the ng list. But, for now I just   
   keep TB running all the time. I don't shutdown the pc.  I use   
   hibernate so that TB doesn't change.

   Hard to stay loose in these covid/stay-home/do-not-travel times.
