The PCB arrived from @oshpark , including STM8S001J3RS485 V1.1

Timeline so fo: ordered 03/Nov, shipped 11/Nov, arrived 21/Nov (including customs).

I'm still waiting for most of the components for the USB-dongles, ordered from Aliexpress around the same time or just before.

The USB-dongle layout is really crammed, and there isn't much space left for aditonal components. The USB-A connector (standard item, $0.68 for 10pcs) fits the KiCad footprint perfectly!
