Very clever discovery. I would not have considered that they were using
a multi-byte charset, since the records are all fixed length, and none
were longer than they should have been.

You might also be having a conversion problem or an bit-ordering
problem. Who knows, maybe it isn't character 0xC2, but 0x43 ;).

A broken vertical bar BTW is 6A in EBCDIC, and 00A6 in Unicode, 6A in
ISO-8859-1

Have you considered UTF-8, because Unicode 00A6 is in UTF-8 C2 A6 (see:
http://www.utf8-chartable.de/ )
