And my statement was misleading. The 136 is the size needed to browse storage and see 8 hex words on the left plus the EBCDIC stuff on the right side of the screen. I think that was the size Ed was using initially and what I used also until I realized I wanted to be able to edit/view lrecl=133 and see the whole thing with the sequence numbers.
