  I was able to get several apps from Ken-DB3 (I believe) from github, but of the 4, I only got 1 working. 

  The apps are as follows, with the errors noted:

1) Solar-Data (alco-solar) -- app works perfectly -- no errors

2) Your Local Weather (SyncWx) 

Synchronet Errors:

  I did find my Weather Underground API key from long ago, and also applied and received an API key for WordNik for Word Of The Day.

  I followed the documentation settings in each item, but as noted, only the alco-solar (Solar Data) is working fine.

  I'm running a special build of Windows 11 Pro 64-bit, with a special NTVDM64 utility, where I can run the legacy doors under Windows 11.
 
  Any assistance would be appreciated.
