The only 135 that I know is coded is the one with the Eyes.....  IS that
still correct or is the APO Telyt also coded?

This is FYI info only.....

Needed or not, the internal database of the M9 has codes for 35 thru 135 mm,
as well as 16 thru 28, but the 40 isn't one of them.

I do have an M9. Now. Hee-he.
