I have 2 unrelated questions:

1. How are the hex characters '1C' and '1E' translated when FTPed to
an ASCII system? I think they remain the same, but want to be
certain. Is there a way to look at QTCPASC table data?

<<SNIP>>

For FTP CCSID(*DFT) /* where *DFT signifies that "The CCSID value 00819 (ISO 8859-1 8-bit ASCII) is used." */:

From EBCDIC 00037, the two records of data:

0506090C 0E0F2223 2F3A3F0D 25
401A401E 401C4041 0D25

To ASCII 00819, the two records of data:
09868D0C 0E0F8283 079A1A0D 0A
2092201E 201C20A0 0D0A

The above conversion\translation matches the docs, EBCDIC to ISO-8 "Figure 101. Control Character Mapping - SBCS EBCDIC to ISO-8" where 0x1C and 0x1E are unchanged between each encoding scheme, viewed at:
