Ken,
I received this from EA several weeks ago.

"Based on our SNP testing we have determined the following results relating to your order:

S2 derived (positive)

S2 is a new SNP which unites haplogroups I and J to the exclusion of
haplogroup G, and is therefore phylogenetically equivalent to S22. It has not yet been tested in haplogroup H but this will be done soon. You have been given this test free as part of Ethnoancestry’s ongoing SNP development program."

I realize this is not what you are looking for but I wonder if EA has ever excluded H.

The SNP S22 which establishes the "missing link" population of IJx(I,J) is one such new tool. Certainly southeast Europe and the Mideast ought to be scoured for examples of IJ haplotypes. It is even worthwhile hunting for some IJx(I,J) haplotypes in our most-used databases --- Ysearch and SMGF --- but due to their biases toward NW Europe, dedicated searches in the SE of Europe and Mideast probably have more promise of discovery. Actually we don't even know what an IJx(I,J) extended haplotype looks like, or whether they still exist, or if exist in what percentage and where?
