I've had the same problems some time ago. My old Supra worked fine, and my
HST didn't. It depends on the modem of your host. Mine had a Tahihao or
whatever they're called and this modem was more or less incompatible with
my HST. I solved the problem with re-writing part of uucico. Try to add
some lines that slow uucico down while connecting (NOT while transmitting
:-). Somehow my HST sent the connect data (name, pw and so on) too fast for
the other modem. By adding some delay it worked.

I also had to add a working break-sending-support, but note that all this
was with a very old version of AmigaUUCP. Since I had never any problems
with AmigaUUCP 1.03 or 1.05 I suspect it must be your host's modem. Try to
find another site.

I has a similar problem with my HST when I first tried it. I could connect to
UNIX but the modem on the UNIX side would just sit there. It turned out to
be a problem with the HST modem settings. I had to disable the error control
check with the HST command "at&m0". This solved my problem very quickly. Try
it out, it may help out.....
