				I believe that a one-stepper is all that is necessary.

Ted | 	  Ted,
 
Nice find!  Note that there are two eliminations.
 
 
By the way, the swordfish / jellyfish (on <8>) does not solve it.
 
 
There are other things going on:  A UR and a couple of DP possibilities ...

Yes, I noticed the two possible skyscrapers.  I was definitely not looking for a one-stepper, but just doing my normal sequence of working on single digit techniques first and hit the winner.
