Wrong quote characters in setup_the_server.md #3

Excellent project. I did find a few typos in the file setup_the_server.md. The sed command failed because the following lines contain backtick (grave accent) characters instead of single quote characters:

line 98
sudo sed -i `s/CPU_DEFAULT_GOVERNOR ...

line 105
sudo sed -i `/if ...

The gpsd.service failed to start as line 145
DEVICES="/dev/ttyAMA0 /dev/pps0″
ends with a 'seconds' character (code 0x2033) in lieu of the double quote character. I see you had corrected a similar issue with the adafruit project.

Apart from the typos there were a couple of other things I had problems with. I did not need the the the parameter dtparam=i2c_arm=on in the [pi5] section of the config.txt file as it already exists near the top of the file as a comment. You can manually uncomment the line or edit it via the raspi-config utility.

Finally I needed to add:
sudo systemctl enable gpsd

I inserted it prior to
sudo systemctl restart gpsd

This may be due to me inadvertently disabling gpsd.service while debugging it due to line 145 in setup_the_server.md. I decided to leave it in as a precaution.

Even with these issues I found the setup easy to follow. Well done.
