What loop? I don't see one in the code.

?? The only data used by this code segment are:
R14 : presumably the length of the character data to be PACK'ed
R15 : presumably the address of the character data to be PACK'ed
MULTSEC : presumably a Halfword containing a conversion factor of
some kind.
=H'2' : a Halfword value of 2 (unless it has been overwritten)
It would be helpful to see the code which loads R14 and R15 and the
code between load and the code in your original post.
