ANALYZE/RMS fails because the last record of the file isn't terminated by
a newline.  You're trying to output a 5469-byte record to a TERMINAL??????
In a single QIO!!!!!!!

Suggestions:  Append a record consisting of a newline to the file, and
	      RMS should be happy with the result.

	      Write a program that will read the file with the huge
	      records then send the long records to the terminal in
	      more digestible pieces (say, less than 512 bytes per
	      QIO).  You can do this in fortran by opening the file
	      for formatted I/O, using the Q format descriptor to
	      get the recordsize, and reading the record into a buffer
	      using an A format (or a series of buffers using several
	      A formats), being careful to ask for only the number of
	      bytes in the record).  You then use several writes, using
	      the $ descriptor (as the last descriptor for the record,
	      as I recall; it's in the manual) to suppress carriage
	      control, to write the data to the terminal.
