Doesn't TR just do a one-for-one translation of bytes? I.e. I don't
think you can use it to insert, as your OOPS indicated. Your tr
translates all \??? to \025 and all \025 to \???. I don't think this
is what is desired.
We could merge your answer with mine similar to:

Charles,
You can use RESIZE operator to break a large record into small records. I
assumed that each record starts with X'5B' ($) and each record has a max
length of 200 bytes and you have a max of 10 records in a single large FB
record.

You can parse up to 100 bad records (%00-%99) . If you have more than 100
bad records per large record, then you may have to do another pass of
