It took just a few days for my boards to travel from Portugal to the UK, so I'm now getting together the small parts - capacitors, resistors and so on - and will be putting components on the Tx board first. Before I do though, a question. I think I know the answer but I want to check... 
I've bought a couple of Arduino Nanos for this project, all have the CH340G chipset. I know that a resistor needs to be replaced with a capacitor on the Rx board, I think that's in order to overcome a problem of the Nano resetting itself when it is connected to a computer. As the Tx board won't be connected, I'm guessing there's no need to substitute components on that board?? (Apologies if this question has already been covered elsewhere, I couldn't find anything though!)
