Hi Rob,
The GUI configuration won't detect the symlinks, as you discovered.? If you set everything else up and close the application you can edit the .ini file directly and add the symlink in there and it will use it.? The down side of this approach is if you open the GUI configuration again it will overwrite it and it'll need to be edited by hand again.
Another option is to use rigctld (hamlib) and let that handle the PTT.? If you are using a radio that doesn't support CAT, you can use the "dummy" rig type and specify a PTT device pointed to your serial port.? Then Hamlib will handle PTT only and ignore any other commands.

Ok I have a question and I have tried creating ?a?/etc/udev/rules.d/99-usb-serial.rulesand while I do see my symbol link I am unable to
select it in the QtSoundmodem app.
What do I need to do to get ttyUSB0 defined so that if it is moved
the system still assigns it and the port config will work
Thanks
