Thank you to GolfCharlie and Claude Code for fixing the code to work with the newly changed FAA API! They have saved a lot of time. A new image has been created and will be uploaded today and available later tonight. If you don't want or need the image, you can visit https://github.com/markyharris/livesectional and incorporate the changes into your board now.

There has been another change to the FAA API which has again broke the map. We are currently working on this. Check back for fix. If you have the fix please post it. - Mark
Have had a dark map for about a month or more now. I checked the lights with a test and they work but I don’t seem to be getting any data to the lights. I’ve rebooted multiple times, checked the wiring, etc. Here is the log file any help would be appreciated

Hmm, the link to get the needed data works just fine. It returns the XML needed to light up your map. I notice you are running V4.501. It may be worth updating to the latest downloadable which is V4.503. If this doesn't make a difference, let me know then we will try a few things if you are comfortable with doing some things through the command line. So let me know. I'll be happy to help any way I can. - Mark
