I would be surprised if wvdial will only check the two devices.  Here is 
the sample config file from the man page:
[Dialer Defaults]
Modem = /dev/ttyS2
Baud = 57600
Init = ATZ
Init2 = AT S11=50
Phone = 555-4242
Username = apenwarr
Password = my-password

It looks like changing the Modem = /dev/ttyS2 to /dev/ham might do you. 
  The wvdial on my system is 1.41 although it is unused.

Will.
