Can't keep TTRs in a PDS either because members move around when compressed or replaced. The CA-1 TMC is basically a fixed length BDAM file without keys. If it were to be replaced, I would expect either a VSAM RRDS or LDS. If an LDS, I wonder if it could be memory mapped into a common 64 bit addressable area.
