If you get this to work I'd be interested.  About a year ago this
site tried to get uucp to work over a couple Dynapac X.25 pads.
It never worked.  Apparently the problem is that uucp does not
have an option to use only 7 bit data transfer.  It seems that
all the options uucp has are variations of the same single option.
By the way, I never found documentation that says that uucp needs
8 bit transfer, the local Unix guru swears that uucp works 7 bit
however.  Can anyone confirm or deny this?
