[mythtv-users] Simple transmitter-is it safe?

[Stuart Felenstein]

Is this simple transmitter something that can extend out and point at the cable box?

I use the circuit as is. I actually built both the receiver and transmitter on the same little board with no issues. My machine has been fine. Now yours on the otherhand..... 

I dont think anyone will give you a 100% yes since no one will ever do that in case you do burn your serial port for whatever reason.

Reading the lirc documentation on the simple transmitter, seems to suggest the serial port may not be safe.   
Any comments on this , as I know people have built them? 
Did you go with the suggested options for eitehr a bigger resistor or amplifier circuit? 
  
Thanks
