Unreadable files result from difficulties in reading a volume,
either because the media has marginal areas or because of issues
with the read head on the drive (e.g., dirty).  Try repeating on
another drive.  Query CONTent will then show what's problematic
on the tape.  Tape drive microcode levels sometimes affect tape
handling and might exacerbate I/O errors.
