[arm-allstar] AutoSky broke?

[Jason]

I've switched to Skywarn Plus <https://github.com/Mason10198/SkywarnPlus>
which has some pretty impressive features, like being able to read the
alerts to you via DTMF. Also, you can set up certain ones to read
automatically like tornado warnings. We currently have three alerts and
it's working.

Another great project for your node is AllScan <https://allscan.info/>
which is a dashboard that makes saving and accessing favorites easy and
perfect for personal nodes (you can also see activity with your favorites).
I use it to interface with my node 99% of the time.
