Vern:

I'm unclear on how DSPTAP *OUTFILE matches up with actual tape labels. Best 
might be read a few labels yourself (your programs or dumping labelled tapes as 
unlabelled) and start cross-referencing things you recognize.

See if this gives you any help in deciphering:

I have an old .RTF document from a section of an old IBM MVS manual that 
describes IBM standard volume labels, but it's pretty ugly when trying to read 
it in Word 2000.

Searching the Internet, try things like "format+ibm+standard+volume+label+tape".
