Is it possible to hook up an SX1276 LoRa module as an add-on given how many pins we have? #6

After pinout consolidation, we have two I/O left. More will be available if programming/debug UART is merged with PMS UART, but it will make debug harder - will not be implemented in this version. For testing, we can connect another kind of LoRa module with UART communication. I will break out the two free pins to headers. https://pl.aliexpress.com/item/Free-shipping-2pics-CDSENET-E45-TTL-100-20dBm-3km-SX1276-868MHz-LoRa-RF-Transceiver-Module/32791688505.html
