I'm not certain whether this is an OS limitation or a limitation in the way WSJTX parses the /dev files, and, as I stated, I am able to manually enter the symlink alias and get it working. I'm just bringing this limitation to your attention in case there is something that can be done to make the dropdowns see the symlinks in WSJTX.

Thank you for your time.

Hi Chris,

you are expecting arbitrary symlinks to be discovered as serial port devices, that isn't going to happen. If you really want mnemonic device file names for your serial devices then use you udev rules to do that. WSJT-X uses the Qt QSerialPortInfo::availablePorts() function to enumerate serial devices and on a udev system that will return all devices with a 'tty' sub-system type.
