Question Replace tr/sed with awk

There is a service that runs that we call multi-streaming that calls a shell script multiple times simultaneously. In this shell script is the following line:
Code:
tr '\r' '\n' < $POLLFILE.OUT | sed '/0000000000000016000A/d' > $POLLFILE

When I run this manually it produces the desired results, but when I run it via the service, the script errs at this line with a meaningless error message. I've put in a request to get my development group to improve error messaging, but since that may take too long, I was wondering if there was a way to use awk to do exactly what tr and sed do above.

Any ideas?

NAME
times - shell built-in function to report time usages of the current shell SYNOPSIS
sh times ksh times DESCRIPTION
sh Print the accumulated user and system times for processes run from the shell. ksh Print the accumulated user and system times for the shell and for processes run from the shell. On this man page, ksh(1) commands that are preceded by one or two * (asterisks) are treated specially in the following ways: 1. Variable assignment lists preceding the command remain in effect when the command completes. 2. I/O redirections are processed after variable assignments. 3. Errors cause a script that contains them to abort. 4. Words, following a command preceded by ** that are in the format of a variable assignment, are expanded with the same rules as a vari- able assignment. This means that tilde substitution is performed after the = sign and word splitting and file name generation are not performed. ATTRIBUTES
