That worked! Thanks! I was able to only print channel 3 info to the serial monitor. The ultimate goal was to map channel 3 using: int a = TinyPpmReader.width_us(3); But if you check the new code I just added above (below original post) I am not able to map this as an integer for some reason. I added arrows where I changed the code to try to map channel 3. Why does it not compile or map like this?

Glad to hear it. This is a new question really - we should stick to one question per, erm, question. If you post a new question I (or others) will try to help.

That said, perhaps you're not clear what PPM_INPUT_PIN is. It's just the number of the pin - not the reading taken from that pin or anything - simply a way to identify the pin. With that in mind, int PPM_INPUT_PIN = TinyPpmReader.width_us(3); looks nonsensical.

OK, I will post another question and try to clarify. This question plus the new one hopefully will help people see how to access the array and map it .Thanks again Mark. Very appreciated!
