I've changed a few things around from the great original code:
The AP strengths are now right hand side justified.
Encryption type is shown, or, a simple '*' to denote no encryption.
It will connect to the home network if found and then display Thingspeak data. That has been useful already while working outside on another project.
A future version is intended to show the time instead...which means we can build atomic watches for under $10 !

It uses a measured 85mA nearly all the time, just spikes when connecting online.

I was thinking about sleep modes and such, before realising that the On/Off switch is perfectly usable as a battery saver ! any data can be brought up to date with the next online connection.

Lovely work, nice to see my code example still being used and enhanced, like the drive through lol.
