I maintain the anonymous FTP area of risc.ua.edu (130.160.4.7) and do
not have a problem getting vmarc files using "BINARY F 80" as stated
earlier.  But as of right now, VMARC and XXE versions of the files are
available in the pub/games/cms section.

However (yep, another however) duplicating the files is taking up a very
large amount of available disk space for the /u/ftp filesystem on risc
and one format has to be erased (in about 2 weeks...no hurry yet).

What format would be best for FTPing those files?   XXEncoded vmarc
files or just VMARC files?

Cast your vote (to jford@ua1vm.ua.edu).  The format with the most
votes will be used in the future.
