Went back to the source system and gunzip'd the file that I
had transferred and did a tar tf on it. and it reported an i/o error,
after listing a large number of files.
Have no idea why, I have plenty of disk space.
recreated the archive on another disk drive, gzip'd and
ftp'd binary. This time it worked
Thanks to all who replied.
