--- Comment #4 from wayne anschutz <wayne@crinc.com> ---
Folks this has been solved!  Someone responded and suggested a blocksize issue.
 We always set the blocksize to 0 and let the drive auto handle blocksize.  We
have been assuming that out-of-the-box tape drives default to blocksize 0. 
Either BSD messed with it or it was not defaulted to 0. Issuing the command mt
blocksize 0 solved the write problem.

Many thanks for everyones assistance with this!  I would have ordered the parts
for a scsi tape on Monday.

Wayne
