Yes, we're running uucp on sytek also.  It took lots of cajoling
from Martin@vax135 (formerly lime, rememebr that?), but after you
get your head straight about forgetting flow control, you'll be
fine.  Here's some pointers:

 X) use a dedicated localnet channel for uucp.
 X) set flow NONE unless you are lucky enuff to have EIA
 X) use a uucp that knows how to do things like "\r"

We use Tom Truscott's uucp (rti!trt) which knows how to send
magic characters.  We have one T-box that calls over 20 other
sites in the facility.  It works great at 9600 baud.
