Hi LoyceV , thought I should try and sort this out. Haven't really used any Electrum client before so first I am familiarising my self with ElectronCash (v 4.4.0) for BCH.

I haven't touched my private keys yet - still on a SSD in my safe!

My plan was to buy some fork coin dust from you and work my way through the offline signing process, but not sure what I'm missing here with ElectronCash:

I checked my original 3 coin addresses on blockchain.com under https://www.blockchain.com/explorer/addresses/bch/q[longstrings] which show expected balances and transactions (mined x2, faucet x1, dust in 2021).

I made a watch wallet in Electron Cash using those public addresses. The faucet address shows expected balance but the mined addresses only show the dust balances from 2021.

Meanwhile am syncing https://bitcoincashnode.org/en/download.html on another installation, should that be needed.

Thanks for reading.
