You're opening the file for unformatted data but reading with a format. You
need either

open(15,file='/dev/rmt/0n',status='OLD',form='UNFORMATTED')
read(15)input

or

open(15,file='/dev/rmt/0n',status='OLD',form='FORMATTED')
read(15,'(A)')input

depending what's on your tape (tape??? -- do they really still exist?).
