Hadcock arms

Simple question: What's the difference between the 228 & 242?

I am using the 242 with both a Zyx Airy3S LO SB and a Cartridge Man Music Maker 3; both sound terrific and track flawlessly in the 242. A popular misconception is that Hadcocks have low effective mass but at 11.4 grams for the 242 and 9.1 grams for the 228 they should be considered medium effective mass tonearms.
