The dictionary is too large to HEXIFY.  MLOAD or LOAD.COM will not deal
with files larger than address FFFFh (64k).  Your command to the TAC
should be B O S, not B I S.  This has to be done before you connect to
your host in most cases.  If You're running TOPS-20, there's a Monitor
patch to fix the TAC problem.  WANCHO@SIMTEL20 or BillW@CRI-KL can
supply the info.  Kermit-80 doesn't do quoting I believe.  There was a
new TOPS-20 Kermit just announced that fixed some bugs - seems to me
that binary transfers might have been one of them.
