As far as I know, UTF-8 is the standard encoding used by MSSQL.
ISO8859-1 /_is_ /LATIN1, so the system is trying to convert (as the
error message says) from utf-8 (SqlServer) to ISO8859-1 ( LATIN1 ).
So I think you have to search on the MSSQL side, not PostgreSql...
You can also use UNICODE encoding on postgres, creating your DB with
CREATE DATABASE mydb ENCODING='UNICODE';
Hope this will give you some hints to solve the problem

Roberto
