See issue "R3 wrong value?" for details. -If you get a "Send Error" problem (with 12 Volt connected) then the solution is to lower the value of R3. It is important to check two voltages. With Satalk signal line high (12 Volt) the voltage on pin 3 of 74LS07 (or alternatively on cathode of D1, which is easier to measure) should be above 2 Volt. When Seatalk pulled to GND (low) the voltage on pin3 should be less than 0.8 Volt. +If you get a "Send Error" problem (with 12 Volt connected) then the solution is to lower the value of R3.

Improved detection of 433MHz keys. - Version 1.3 - 13.12.19: Added definition for certain OLED displays that require this to work properly.
