Questions

How big is the RPi Ham PCB?

It measures 65 × 56.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the RPi Ham use?

47 parts, built around the MAX232N, PCM3060PW and RJ45. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the RPi Ham KiCad files?

From the bitbyt3r/RPi-Ham repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is RPi-Ham/RPi-Ham.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the RPi Ham design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask bitbyt3r before reusing the design.
