No, I completely missed that! Thanks for letting me know.
That's just a bonus for me...I've seen a couple 42-760s around in the past 20 years or so, but I don't think I've ever seen a 42-761.
The 761 is the AC-DC version of the 760:

And, yes, the ballast plus lack of a power transformer helps give it away.
I'm still not used to how eBay displays photos now, and sometimes I overlook that scroll bar - that is what happened in this case.
Glad you didn't bid, Sean
Mike - I will have to look when I get home, but I suspect the "voltage switch" is accomplished by changing the position of how the ballast is plugged in.
