Phil's Lab on YT has a bunch of videos on using Kicad, including getting inexpensive PCBA from JLC PCB. He was planning on doing an instruction series in collaboration with Robert Feranec (who I learned a lot of Altium tips from). https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVryWqJ4cSlbTSETBHpBUWw I believe Kicad got a good bump over open-source alternatives when CERN standardized on it a few years ago. https://home.cern/news/news/computing/kicad-software-gets-cern-treatment --=20 http://www.piclist.com/techref/piclist PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
