MPE FTP transfer into HFS namespace

MPE/iX 7.5

I have a set of Store-to-Disc file having the form TEST.1.1, TEST.2.1,
TEST.3.1 and TEST.4.1 residing on a Linux server. I wish to retrieve
these files to an HP3000/918LX via the mget command of the MPE/iX ftp
client.

:FTP 192.168.219.1
File Transfer Protocol [A0012E07] (C) Hewlett-Packard Co. 2002 [PASSIVE
SUPPORT]
220 (vsFTPd 2.0.5)
Connected to 192.168.219.1. (FTPINFO 40)
Name(manager): ANONYMOUS
331 Please specify the password.
Password:

Remote system type is UNIX
ftp> prompt
Interactive mode off. (FTPINFO 42)
ftp> cd ftp-drop
250 Directory successfully changed.
ftp> mget TEST*
200 PORT command successful. Consider using PASV.
150 Here comes the directory listing.
226 Directory send OK.
40 bytes received in 0.01 seconds (3.00 Kbytes/sec)
The group name provided did not start with an alphabetic character.
(FILE SYSTEM ERROR -117)

OK, that did not work. Let us try this instead:

ftp> mget ./TEST*
200 PORT command successful. Consider using PASV.
150 Here comes the directory listing.
226 Directory send OK.
40 bytes received in 0.01 seconds (3.00 Kbytes/sec)
The group name provided did not start with an alphabetic character.
(FILE SYSTEM ERROR -117)

What is the magical incantation to put these files into the HFS namespace
for future use by RESTORE?

Regards,
