I have tried many things since, including downloading the files in
question(bin.ch-cp)
twice.  Still no luck.
        Some additional information:
                The destination file is ascii.gz
                The program responds with "invalid header" also.
In addition to email I have search the net very thoroughly, going from
newsgroups to 
FreeBSD-FAQs to FreeBSD search engines...still no luck.  I have seen many
similar problems written to FreeBSD.org, but no responses.

Thanks for any help in advance!
