If the data is in a specific position in the records, use the sort INCLUDE statement to select the records.

//SORTSEL EXEC PGM=SORT

//SYSOUT     DD  SYSOUT=*

//SORTIN     DD  DSN=INPUT.FILE,DISP=OLD

//SORTOUT  DD  DSN=OUTPUT.FILE,DISP=(NEW,CATLG),...

//SYSIN       DD  *

 SORT FIELDS=COPY

 INCLUDE COND=(13,2,CH,EQ,C'NH')
/*

You could also use File-AID or IBM File-Manager.
