Sorry, I guess my attempt at a terse, effective post really failed.
I did run:
$ sudo wvdial /etc/wvdial.conf
in a second terminal while I was running slmodemd in another terminal.
The results of the command $ sudo wvdial /etc/wvdial.conf are below:
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.56
--> Warning: section [Dialer /etc/wvdial.conf] does not exist in wvdial.conf.
--> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such file or directory
--> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such file or directory
--> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such file or directory
Which I am taking to mean that no modem was found.
Perhaps I am mistaken? In which case, where is the modem and how do I format it as outlined previously in this email thread?
Thanks,
Anita.

should scan and find the modem. If it does not please
report back. Leave slmodemd running in other terminal.

Anita,
Just to clarify on Antonio's terse comment.
After the successful:
$ sudo slmodemd -c CANADA --alsa hw:0,6
leave slmodemd running.
Open a 2nd console or new TAB on the same one and
run the
$ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
If this step succeeds:
$ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf
and edit to a format like that below.
Afterward with slmodemd still running, try a
dialout with:
$ sudo wvdial
Please report back to the List, not to me
directly:

Did you CTRL+C to do sudo wvdialconf
/etc/wvdial.conf ?
open up another terminal or session and then
type
$ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
That should find your modem, and get you setup.
Please report back if
you have trouble/questions.
