Looks like ftp://ftp.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/MICSFT/EBCDIC/CP500.TXT was created based on https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSZJPZ_11.3.0/com.ibm.swg.im.iis.ds.parjob.adref.doc/topics/r_deeadvrf_ASCII_to_EBCDIC.html But this information "This translation is not bidirectional. Some EBCDIC characters cannot be translated to ASCII and some conversion irregularities exist in the table. For more information, see Conversion table irregularities." was ignored. Additional, this line from CP500.TXT: 0xBB 0x007C #VERTICAL LINE haven't any source in IBM's table.
