this is how I use my USB-serial converter.

I have an udev rule:

$ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/21-persistent-local.rules 
ATTRS{manufacturer}=="Prolific Technology Inc.", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0557", 
ATTRS{idProduct}=="2008", SYMLINK+="rig0"


so when I attached the converter (or boot my system), udev
creates a device with name /dev/rig0.

After that, I can use it in config:

RADIO_CONTROL
RIGMODEL=2009
RIGSPEED=4800
RIGPORT=/dev/rig0

You have to create your own udev rule for your device.
