Second pass by crosshatching: one 3, one 6, one 7 which finishes the center column with a 9, which gets me the rest of the 9s, leaving one spot in the center row, which leads to the center square, the fourth row, the left middle square.

Fourth pass: easy squares (with only a couple of empty cells) finishes the top right square, all top three rows and the third col, then the second col, sixth col... and the last half-dozen cells are obvious

Knowing all the details of how someone solved the puzzle is interesting...after I have solved it for myself. It might be nice to have a separate chat log for that kind of discussion.
