[zcat] [gunzip -c] header

Hello,

When i lauches this command
Code:
ssh -n server_name gunzip -c "/REP/xxxx.gz" > server.log

There are a few stray characters like NULNULNULNUL100644 NUL000000NUL000000NUL00024002704 12135060747 012607NUL at the beginning of server.log.
In the xxxx.gz there is a tar file
I'm not sure but it seems this is the TAR's header.
Can you help me to remedy that ?

Thank you
