The NOTE word for a PDSE is a relative line number and an indicator of the member. Suppose it's 6 bits for the member and 26 for the line (x2d(3ffffff)==67,108,863 -- will it handle 67 M?) And if it allows 6 bits for the member, what happens if you do BLDLs for 65 members, then POINT to each in succession. This problem arise partly because PDSEs are logically unblocked. The same would happen if your PDS were unblocked.
