John, Glad you found the problem. The reason you couldn't find the MASTER console is because the concept of the MASTER console went away somewhere around z/OS 1.8. Since then issuing an internal DISPLAY command without the L= would normally cause the command response to go to the hardcopy log as well as any operator console with INTIDS=Y unless the command processor did additional checking to not allow it.
