No doubt that's another place where I went wrong.  wireless face is 
still not up.  Had it working at one time, no longer.  Thanks for all 
your input Simon!  I think I'm going to stick with what's working right 
now (as mentioned in another email, blue & yellow can both ping the 'Net 
over wired) and focus on figuring out what's wrong with hostapd, then on 
to remaining DNS issues.  I greatly appreciate all your input!!!
