Hi,
It seems to me (from the log error) like a communication problem (interface problem).
As the radio never get his ident string over the wire; can you check the cable is working properly?
Maybe try to read it with the OEM software to confirm the cable is working ok.

If you have a USB programming cable, then you are selecting the wrong port. It will look similar to "/dev/tty(something)" but it will have "USB" in it somewhere.

Maybe looking this can give you a clue: (For USB Cables)

i know this link
And I've already tried the solution they give there
I downloaded the driver listed there
Still it does not work
I know what it should look like in Linux
But there is no such option
The computer does not recognize at all that the cable is connected to it

Like a said above, the port you choose in Linux should be /dev/ttyUSB0. Your debug log shows that you chose /dev/ttyS0 which is incorrect.
In Windows you should be able to go into device manager to see which UART chip is in your programming cable. If it is a Prolific chip, you must downgrade the driver to v3.2.0.0 (v2.0.2.1 for XP). If the programming cable has something other than a Prolific chip, then you must get the latest driver for that chip.

what i see is /dev/ttys0 to /dev/ttys31
no /dev/ttyUSB0
When I received the cable the CD with driver software was broken
I went into the site of the radio
And downloaded a driver and software for Windows
It detected the cable and asked to do restart the computer
After restarting
The computer did not recognize the cable anymore

I worked according to the instructions of this guide several times without success
There was always an unknown device written
I tried on 4 computers with windows without success
2 computers with windows 7
1 computer with windows 10
and 1 computer with windows xp
in the device Manager I see an unknown device
And not as written in the instructions "usb serial controller" or "prolific usb to serial comm port"
I tried everything it just does not recognize the cable

Which Linux distribution are you using? I use Linux Mint (a derivative of Ubuntu).
I am beginning to think that the CD is not the only thing broken.

i think it is the cable
but windows detected the cable at first
