Could you please tell us which PostgreSQL version you are currently
using? Also it would be useful to know:

* which is your database encoding?
* which is the client_encoding setting you are using?

In general, what you are saying suggests me that you are using the
SQL_ASCII encoding at some stage in your session (either on the server
side or the client side).

However, before I go on, please answer the above questions.

Thanks,
Gabriele
