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
Every time the power goes out the map doesn't start up when power comes back on. I have to unplug it and back in to get it to reboot. Why doesn't power coming back do that?
Hi Ron,
Whenever the power goes out then comes back on, the map boots up quicker than the internet router. So the map attempts to connect 10 times, then if it doesn't connect, it quits to the command line to help in diagnosis if necessary.
When you power cycle the map again, your internet is up and running and the map is able to connect then display the weather.
I originally tried letting the map continually try to connect to the internet indefinitely but that caused issues for diagnosis.
If you think it helpful, I could increase the number of attempts at re-connection in hopes that the router boots up in time.
Let me know your thoughts. - Mark
Mark-
Would you be able to instead just delay the reconnect for say 60-seconds to allow the retry? Not sure how long the delay would be, but then it would give the system a chance to reboot in time to forgo the problems? Just a thought.
Guys,
Sure let's try delaying the connection to the internet for the 60 seconds and see if that helps.
