From ange-ftp.el:

;; Binary file transfers:
;;
;; By default ange-ftp transfers files in ASCII mode.  If a file being
;; transferred matches the value of ange-ftp-binary-file-name-regexp then
;; binary mode is used for that transfer.

Maybe you play with `ange-ftp-binary-file-name-regexp' settings, for
example set it to "".

Best regards, Michael.
