Originally posted by Slo2g Got the new MAX232 in and solderd in some jumper wires to "bypass" the burnt spot.

Thanks guys.
The v2.2 board is only a two sided PCB, so while I'm sure yours can be repaired, I would recommend looking into a v3.0 board for the future. The v3.0 boards offer far more protection against little disasters like these from happening.
