[DARARepeater] Raspberry Pi 5 Demo tonight

[Tony Williamitis]

Jeremy,
You are doing great work.  I have also been involved in Tiny Tapeout but
did not take the course - let us know how that goes.
I have been working too much and probably won't get a design into TT05 -
only 8 days till the deadline.  I should make TT06.
Looking forward to your report!
