I decided against software USB because the receiver is already spending much of its time trying to meet the real-time limits from the radio decoding, and the USB would be its own big undertaking.
As I stressed in the preceding post (http://spin.atomicobject.com/2014/05/16/radio-system-from-sc...), I'm intentionally doing these things the hard way, so I can learn how more of these things work at a deeper level than "use built-in functionality, configure to run at this baud rate, done". Otherwise, yeah, I'd use a 32-bit ARM chip and a better SMD transceiver. :)
