Make a 2-floppy BL3.50 and copy fonts from there.

clR9x15 says it is iso646.
Now at
        http://keesan.freeshell.org/bl/clR9x15.pcf.gz

cl is Schumacher iso646
Most of the other fixed fonts are 8859-1 (5x8 is iso646, some are 8859-15)
9x15 that I uploaded before is 8859-1.

Which charset do you need to view things properly locally?
