Sure a 74HC14 is fine, after all it's basically a 2Nv grounded bicore
circuit. It may require slightly different caps if you run out of timing
adjustment. A 4069 hex inverter (metal gate CMOS) would probably work fine
too. Here is an even simpler solution with the 139 output pin functions
changed so that the A and B inputs can be hooked straight to a microcore.
Note the use of the 139 output 3 for the "hold" position function.
