Auto-reload is on. Simply save files over USB to run them or enter REPL to disable. code.py output: Traceback (most recent call last): File "code.py", line 7, in File "adafruit_gps.py", line 102, in update File "adafruit_gps.py", line 148, in _parse_sentence UnicodeError:

line 148: sentence = str(sentence, 'ascii').strip() fails if sentence contains stale data that is not ascii.

Can you check and see if this still happens? #21 should have fixed this
