In addition to specifying image mode, you should also specify "8-bit bytes". ITS will then take care of extracting the bytes from PDP-10 words in the correct way. I gather different unix ftp programs have different commands, but I'm told at least one of them does it this way: ftp mit-mc type i quote type "l 8" You will still need to strip the 4 header bytes (which I'm told you can do with a general-purpose utility called 'dd'), but you certainly shouldn't have to shift anything around!
