I used a w-wing <89> with a the hinge/group link as noted by Norm in another post, plus a type 3 UR <19> to finish off this puzzle.
The first move was the difficult one for me to locate.

Ted,
if this is the w-wing to which you refer
Code: | .---------------------.---------------------.---------------------.
| 2 67 3 | 4 789 6789 | 5 #89 1 |
| 57 147 145 | 179 2 13789 |38-9 6 378 |
| 8 167 9 | 5 137 1367 | 4 2 37 |
:---------------------+---------------------+---------------------:
| 3 179 8 | 26 179 179 | 26 5 4 |
| 567 2 45 | 67 358 348 | 1 *378 9 |
| 567 1479 145 | 12679 358 348 |*38 *378 26 |
:---------------------+---------------------+---------------------:
| 4 8 2 | 19 6 159 | 7 39 35 |
| 1 5 6 | 3 79 279 |#89 4 28 |
| 9 3 7 | 8 4 25 | 26 1 256 |
'---------------------'---------------------'---------------------' |
then the elimination of that 9 reduces the puzzle to singles. |

Norm, yes that is the W-wing I used. Sometimes I do not do alot of basic clean-up after each move, especially if I notice another step. I suspect that is what happen in this instance.
Thanks very much for your input and also for pointing out in detail this hinge/group link technique.
