I definitely swapped the ch340g pins a few times to be sure. Not sure if I swapped the pins on the pl2303hx, but both pins had the same voltage on when measured. All good for me now that I found one that works, but could be a bit harder to work out for someone who doesn't have a pile of random usb-uart modules lying around.
