Thanks.  After some munging, I get:

WTF!?  Didn't Shmuel tell us that UTF-8 contains all of Unicode?
(And all EBCDIC code points are defined in IBM-1047.)  I gotta try
this on 1.13 and submit a PMR.  Or am I missing something?

The Roman characters in the file as transferred with
sbdataconn=(IBM-1047,ISO8859-1) appear plausible.

Perhaps I should resubscribe to IBMTCP-L.
