I'm checking the correct pinout for this cable, the default is RS232, the truth is that the UV-5R is not compatible, the TXD pin is inverted, tomorrow I will build a cable for testing.

I got mine from a local guy at a reasonable price (maybe he was selling it after discovering that it can't be upgraded), so I...

Unfortunately today I got a DM-1801 that is not entering download mode. Fortunately I got it for a reasonable price so I'm keeping it. However there is something that is not like others... I can't talk to it using a USB to Serial Cable. I don't have right now the "slim one", the "direct one", but I ...
