@mfalkvidd wow, thank you for your help! I totally misunderstood the radio scenario.
I uploaded my "Gateway + Relay Actuator" sketch and updated the radio section as you suggested. We are connected! I can ping the node.
Now my challenge is getting connected to Home Assistant on my Pi. I'm thinking I need to do some permissions work within HA/Pi.
Thank you!
