On Fedora Core 3  there is documentation under:

        /usr/share/doc/mt-st-*

One file of interest there is stinit.def.examples which has several
sample stinit.def examples for things like DDS and DLT and ??? drives.

In addition to the standard nst#/st# devices (mode 0 from stinit.def)
and the nst#l/st#l (I beleive that is an ell, not a one) device that
Christopher mentioned, mode 2 and mode 3 are accessed with devices
nst#m/st#m and nst#a/st#a respectively.

Where did you find that mapping between mode-number and suffix
letter in /dev/st0X ?   That has puzzled me since ages...
