George, the Coupling Facility is not involved in managing 3270 data 
streams.

As others have said, the problem is in the logmode associated with the 
non-SNA 3270 LU.  For some reason, VTAM sysprogs keep using ancient 
logmodes for reasons they can't actually articulate except "that's the way 
we've always done it."   For almost a quarter century, the correct logmode 
for any 3270 has been D4A3290 (local SNA) or D4B3290 (non-SNA).

The 3290 logmodes are simple, removing all screen size and capability 
information from the PSERVIC field, and causing VTAM to query the terminal 
to determine its configuration and capabilities.
