XTS2500 programming cable

Post by Iguana »

Hello guys!
I have tryed to use the first shematic, and the MAX233 is dead (I think) after reading the radio twice.
What shcematic is better for this use
The first one:

The second:

There is a little difference between the first and the second, Look at RS232 pins 1,6,4. Pin 5 (gnd) is not connected
Second schematic is using hex inventers 74LS04.

I need your opinion.
Thanks in advance
