- Sure - that's why it's called a "class" and not a "speed" field. You can
- add a one character prefix (or suffix but I don't think Taylor uucp knows
- suffixes). Then only the matching device entries will be tried, so you
- can tie a Systems entry to a specific dialer. You can duplicate the
- Device entry under as many classes (and speeds) as you want so that you
- aren't limited to a single dialer per device.
