Jon Brase on the PiDP-11 list solved the problem for me.  For future
reference, you need to dedicate a tty line/host TCP port to the UUCP line,
and tell simh to use it notelnet.

e.g.:

set dz en
set dz lines=16
att -m dz 1107
# UUCP needs 8 bits
set dz 8b
att dz -am line=4,1729;notelnet

And then on the Taylor UUCP side, point the UUCP port at localhost:1729
(rather than 1107).
