RasPi works great for bringing in ITTY for your TTYs!

The AWA Museum has one (thanks to Paul, W2TTY) for copying the main ITTY 
stream. It powers up when we turn on the TTY display, connects to our 
WIFI, and in a few seconds is providing AFSK background "music". It also 
drives a Dovetron (with real CRT display). Whenever we want to show a 
TTY in action, we just take the Dovetron out of standby and start 
printing ITTY.

At the end of the day, we just kill all the power to the display. It 
does not seem to bother the RasPi to be shut down that way.

Have fun,

Duncan
