I will assume you have the ability to send and receive email through uunet.
If so, you can access SIMTEL20 file via a list server at various locations.
The list server will prepare requested files and mail them to you in pieces.
There are limits and other features.  Get the file AAAREAD.ME that is 
discussed in the comp.sys.ibm.digest newsgroup, I think.  :)  Simply send
email to uunet!vm1.nodak.edu!listserv with a valid Reply-to field, a subject
of Request (some routers need this), and a one-line message that reads:
    /PDGET MAIL pd1:<msdos.filedocs>aaaread.me ( UUENCODE
It may take a few days if the net is busy, but it works for me.
Once you get the mail messages, piece them together, remove the headers,
run uudecode and probably an un-archive program.  Is that muddy enough?  :)
