Type 1 UR 48 in Grid r37c79; r7c9<>48 solves it. |

| I used an xy-wing (256) forcing r9c1 <> 5 giving r8c2 = 8 which solves it. |

I used the same move, but r8c2=5, not 8, since it's the only 5 left after the XY-Wing elimination. |

I, who take inordinate pleasure in secondary matters, was delighted to find that no fewer than 7 "sole candidate"s seemed to be necessary during the preliminaries (and more than 7 were available).
And, just to be slightly different: the xy-wing elimination settles the 5 in row 9 and that solves it. |
