This is the interesting part :

| pppd[163]: Connect script failed
| pppd[163]: Exit.

| "Can't get terminal parameters: Input/output error" means what?

Exactly.  I just skimmed the manpage for chat and didn't see that
particular message.  Perhaps it means the device driver isn't setup
properly, but I know nothing about ham radios or using them with a
computer.  (the error would be in the part of the log I snipped)

How about just trying minicom and working through it interactively?
Then you can see what needs to be done to interact with the modem.
Then locate the chat script your system is using (the one on my system
is /etc/chatscripts/provider, but I'm not actuall using PPP anymore).
