The 'real' cover now appears in both the Calibre viewer and the Kindle for PC viewer. I'll now have to send it to my Kindle Fire and see what happens there.

Thank you all for the assistance.
Adding a Mobi file does NOT convert it (it IS a Mobi file )
Forcing a Convert Mobi in Mobi out updates the file.
