Hi,
I began soldering the OLED shield today, which uses the combo shield PCB. As I wanted to add a connector to be able to remove the OLED screen to use it also with other arduino-like boards, I first checked some points on the board with an ohmmeter, and was surprised to find a short circuit between ground and SCL. I checked the soldering I did, but did not find a problem. I was also unable to remove the stackable headers to get back to a bare PCB. I have two other combo shield PCBs (for GPS and 9DOF), still bare : I checked they have no short circuit between  SCL and ground. Either due to some problem when I soldered the headers or the resistors, or some problem in the PCB itself, the first combo shield has this short circuit which I can't suppress, and which I think is not normal. I would thus need another Combo PCB: are some available ? if not when ? and by the way are stackable header for the Digispark pro available too ? Many thanks in advance
