As Gerhard wrote, BAL is well and truly out of support. It was part of
BPS/360 and doesn't run on any current hardware. Further, it doesn't
support macros.

That's not the same as BAL. The name "ALC" is generic, but I wouldn't
try using any assembler but HLA[1] for USS macros in z/OS.

>I last used ASMA90 in 2004.

That's HLA, the current z/OS assembler.

[1] Or HLA clones.
