Gene&Ginny, did you do a write up on this forum when this happened? I think I read it if you did. On Sunday morning while DW was still sleeping at the campground, I did a search. What I read was where you made a homemade manometer to find the low gas pressure.
I think I'm going to start with cleaning the burner and jet. If that doesn't work, I'll proceed with the gas pressure testing. I bought a new regulator last year, but that is no guarantee that it is producing the proper pressure. I bought this one...

I'm not sure my flame looks as good as your "good" flame does. It will be interesting to see what I find.
@enblethen - I think I will at least start with a couple good shots of air pressure up the flue pipe and see how that goes.
@bobndot - I tried the visual test on the range. I ended up with all 3 burners and the oven lit. Lighting or turning off individual burners did not change any of the others. So at least from that perspective, I hopefully am getting good gas pressure from my one-year-old regulator. If cleaning the burner and jet doesn't work, I will probably do a manometer test anyway.
