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.

I have a 5 OLED display and it works intermittently. The first 4 OLEDs right now have “static“ or snowy pixels, and the last one is blank. I can tell they are trying to refresh because four of them blink off for just a moment and then come back on. Any ideas?

@stevepeck1 Was the OLED looking like this? I powered mine up for as it had been stored and I get snowy pixels of the first 3 of 4 and the 2nd bank of 4 are all off. Wondering where to start looking to solve this

@stevepeck1 Well I guess I need to examine all my connections now. Thanks for the info.
