There are several uucp implementations available on the Mac. I wouldn't know
how robust uucp "g" is under noisy line conditions, but maybe you should just
get some MNP or Telebit modems?
 
One such shareware uucp implementation was written by Jim O Dell, and you can
contact him at jim@fpr.com.
 
hope this helps,
