Jurgen,

Thanks for the quick reply.

I just figured it out.  It wasn't a problem with the WMS version.  The
layer was being added, but I wasn't seeing any imagery.  I think that
the problem was that when I was in the dialog where you choose the
layer from a connected WMS, I didn't select the radio button for JPEG.

This WMS only advertises/supports one imagetype, 'image/jpeg'.  Even
though there is only one Image Encoding option, the ratio button was
not selected by default.  I had added a WMS layer that was of type
image/png and the radio button was automatically selected by default.

So, user error.

Thanks again,

David.
