Did you have 3380's available?
Did you complain to IBM?

We still have a couple hundred addresses defined on our new Shark as 3380's.
I'm not sure exactly why, but they are there. I think we had some software

I'm curious - what would be the benefit of
AFAIK the largest 3380 model is approx 1GB.
3380-K: 1.89 GB

Hi Folks,
Please download File 247 from the Updates page of www.cbttape.org to
get a fresh load module of my new commercial version of the old
BRODSCAN program to analyze your Broadcast Dataset (SYS1.BRODCAST or a
copy thereof). The BDMSCAN member, and the sample JCL member BDMSCAN$

Suppose you use FDR, for example, to copy a Broadcast Dataset from a 3380 to
a 3390.
Does anybody still have 3380's?
I haven't seen one since 1990!

I think that the larger track size might allow a little more data per track,
but other than that, why would having 3380s be a problem?
I never said it was a problem.
I just said that I wasn't aware that people were still using
Hi Folks,
The device type doesn't even matter here, and we shouldn't get
sidetracked by 3380's or whatever. I'll explain.
The fact is that a free Broadcast Dataset record, with key X'FF' has
to have the absolute record number, starting with X'01', in the first
data byte of the
